Abstrakt: In this study, a novel sponge biocarriers (SB) in moving bed bioreactor (MBBR) treating recirculating aquaculture systems wastewater was evaluated for the first time. Two lab-scale MBBRs were operated simultaneously for 116 days under various hydraulic retention times (HRTs). The reactors R1 and R2 were filled with K5 plastic carriers and SB, respectively. From the results, at an optimum HRT of 6 h, ammonia removal efficiency and nitrification rate were 86.67 ± 2.4% and 1.43 mg/L.h for the R1 and, 91.65 ± 1.3% and 1.52 mg/L.h for the R2, respectively. The microbial community analysis showed that the predominant genera in the nitrifying community were Nitrosomonas (AOB) and Nitrospira (NOB) in co-existence with heterotrophic genera Hyphomicrobium, Mesorhizobium, Zhizhongheella, and Klebsiella spp. Modified Stover-Kincannon model examined the ammonia removal kinetics, and the values of kinetic parameters obtained were U max : 0.909 and 1.111 g/L.d and K B : 0.929 and, 1.108 g/L.d for the R1 and R2, respectively. The correlation coefficients (R 2 ) of the MBBRs were higher than 0.98, indicating that the model adequately described the experimental data. Overall, MBBR, filled with the proposed novel SB operated at 6 h HRT, can achieve the highest nitrification performance and increase the diversity of the functional microbial communities.
