Part-financed by the European Union (European Regional Development Fund and European Neighborhood and Partnership Instrument) Operation dificulties 1. Process stability during winter (temperature about 7°C); 2. Low hydraulic load (high HRT and SRT values); 3. Low loaded in terms of organic (low organic C source for nitrogen conversation); 4. Alcalinity control;
