These wastewater streams are characterized by high concentrations of nitrogen and organic matter, and thus its treatment with the PN-AMX processes, as well as the performance of the biological processes, were assessed during the operation of laboratory scale reactors. The gathered experimental data will improve the start-up and applicability limits of the biological processes at full-scale, allowing the fulfillment of the increasingly stringent discharge requirements for these industrial effluents.engAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internacionalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/Anammox granular sludgePartial nitritationIndustrial wastewaterMaterias::Investigación::33 Ciencias tecnológicas::3308 Ingeniería y tecnología del medio ambiente::330810 Tecnología de aguas residualesMaterias::Investigación::33 Ciencias tecnológicas::3308 Ingeniería y tecnología del medio ambiente::330811 Control de la contaminación del aguaMaterias::Investigación::33 Ciencias tecnológicas::3308 Ingeniería y tecnología del medio ambiente::330802 Residuos industrialesdoctoral thesisopen access
