Abstract: Wastewater treatment from biogenic elements is an important task aimed at preserving natural water bodies from technogenic eutrophication. With the discovery of the process of anaerobic oxidation of ammonium (ANAMMOX), it became possible to treat wastewater from nitrogen compounds in a more economical way. However, due to the physiological characteristics of anammox bacteria, most of the developed technologies based on the ANAMMOX process are designed to treat wastewater with a specific composition and properties: high temperature, high nitrogen content and low concentration of organic substances. In this paper, the main wastewater treatment technologies using the anammox process have been studied, the most suitable technology for the treatment of domestic wastewater – DEAMOX – has been identified and a proposal for its improvement has been developed.

Keywords: wastewater, biological treatment, anaerobic ammonium oxidation, ANAMMOX, SHARON, CANON, DEMON, DEMOX, nitrogen, phosphorus.
