The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical
22、committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with
23、the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft Interna
24、tional Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may b

ISO 9509 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 147, Water quality, Subcommittee SC 5, Biological methods. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 9509:1989),
26、which has been technically revised. EN ISO 9509:2006vIntroduction Nitrification is an important process in the treatment of waste waters, since it is necessary to reduce the polluting effects of ammonium in treated discharges to receiving waters. It is further necessary to convert ammonium to nitrat
27、e in order to allow the subsequent process of denitrification (producing nitrogen gas) in the anoxic stage of the modified activated sludge process, thus considerably reducing the potential for eutrophication in the receiving waters. The nitrification process is generally performed by two separate g
28、roups of autotrophic bacterial species This International Standard describes a method for assessing the inhibition of the production of oxidized nitrogen (nitrite plus nitrate), or of the removal of ammonium, by nitrifying activated sludge. EN ISO 9509:2006blank1Water quality Toxicity test for asses
29、sing the inhibition of nitrification of activated sludge microorganisms WARNING Sewage and activated sludge contain potentially pathogenic organisms. Appropriate precautions are necessary when handling them. Toxic test substances and those with unknown properties are to be handled with care. Persons
30、 using this International Standard should be familiar with normal laboratory practice. This standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user to establish appropriate safety and health practices and to ensure compli
31、ance with any national regulatory conditions. IMPORTANT It is absolutely essential that tests conducted according to this standard be carried out by suitably trained staff. 1 Scope This International Standard specifies a method for assessing the short-term inhibitory effect of waters, waste waters o
32、r test substances on nitrifying bacteria in activated sludge. The inhibitory effect is estimated over an exposure period of usually 3 h or up to 24 h with weakly nitrifying sludge. The method is applicable to nitrifying activated sludge derived from domestic and synthetic sewage and also to sludges
33、from industrial and mixed domestic and industrial waste waters. The nitrifying activity of the sludge is verified by testing in the presence and absence of a specific inhibitor (e.g. N-allylthiourea; see Annex A). If the nitrification rate is within a suitable range for the test, i.e. 2 mg of nitrog
34、en per gram of suspended solid and hour to 6,5 mg of nitrogen per gram of suspended solids and hour, the sludge may be used directly. If not, adjustments are necessary (see Clause 9). The method is applicable to water-soluble, non-volatile chemicals, and to waste waters Sludges from different source
35、s respond differently to a given concentration of an inhibitor mainly due to reaction between the inhibitor and components of the sludge. This results in a partial neutralisation of the toxic effect. Also, since the test lasts only hours, any inhibitory effects may diminish or increase over a longer
36、 period, e.g. in the continuous activated sludge system (see ISO 5667-16). 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

44、or washing procedures, tap water is suitable as well. Make sure that the water is free from chemicals which may inhibit nitrification processes (e.g. Cu2+ions). 5.2 Nitrifying activated sludge. Collect a sufficient volume of a nitrifying activated sludge from a local waste water treatment plant, or
45、from a laboratory-grown sludge (see Annex C), in which nitrification is known to be occurring. According to the purpose of the test, sludge may be collected from plants treating predominantly domestic sewage, mixed domestic industrial waste water or solely industrial waste water; the source of the s
46、ludge and the treated waste water should be reported since the results of the test often depend of the origin of the sludge used (see Reference 6). Maintain the sludge in an aerobic condition. Since the toxicity to nitrification may change with time of storage (see Reference 1), assessments should b
47、e made as soon as possible after collection and preferably within 24 h (see ISO 5667-16). Instead of using activated sludge from a waste water plant, nitrifying sludge can be grown in the laboratory (see Annex C). Although the sludge may be used as collected, it is preferable to wash the sludge to r
48、emove any inhibitors and nitrate present, before re-suspending in chlorine-free, nitrate-free tap water. This washing procedure may be carried out by centrifuging or settling and is optional. Centrifuge (e.g. 10 000 min1for 5 min) or settle the sludge and discard the supernatant liquid. Wash the res
49、idue with a volume of tap water equal to the original volume, re-centrifuge or settle and again discard the supernatant liquid. Finally, re-suspend the centrifuged or settled sludge in an appropriate volume of tap water to give the required concentration of mixed liquor suspended solids (e.g. 3 g/l) and aerate until use. 5.3 Full medium. Dissolve 5,04 g of sodium hydrogen carbonate, NaHCO3, and 2,65 g of ammonium sulfate, (NH4)2SO4, in 1 l of water (5.1). NOTE This medium, when diluted 1:10 (1 + 9) with water (5.1), contain
