Abstract: A zeolite media lateral biological aerated is designed and used to treat domestic wastewater. The experimental results that under the optimal technological conditions which hydraulic is 0.43 m3/m2·h and gas/liquid is 10∶1, the removal rates of COD, SS, NH3-N,TN,TP are 88.01%、95.18%、78.97%、52.58% and 21.02% respectively. The research conclusions are that effluent COD capacity load increases with the COD removal reducing gradually and NH3-N,TN removal reducing obviously,effluent NH3-N capacity load increases with the NH3-N removal reducing obviously.LBAF has large pollution carrying capacity; and is uneasy to be blocked, in comparison with traditional BAF, the operation cycle of LBA is postponed.
