The aim of this article is to define the possibilities of applying multivariate statistical
analysis (PCA and control charts) in the monitoring of the effectiveness of biological nitrification
in a wastewater treatment plant working for the municipality of Sanok. The difference in oxygen
affinity between ammonium and nitrite oxidizers results in a bacteria competition between AOM and
NOM. A more stable nitrification process was obtained in reactor I for mean oxygen concentration
of 1.13-2.05 mgO2·dm-3. The lowest mean concentrations of ammonia nitrogen were obtained in the
range 3.43-3.62 mgN-NH4+·dm-3. Reactor II worked at mean oxygen concentration 1.69-4.56 mgO2·dm-3,
which caused lower stability in this study period. The mean concentration of ammonium nitrogen
ranged from 4.06 to 9.08 mgN-NH4+·dm-3. April 2016 was considered the most stable period of work
of nitrification reactors. In that month, in reactor I the upper specification limit USL was not exceeded.
In reactor II the USL was exceeded only 10% of the time. The index of the process capacity Cpk was
higher for reactor I, and achieved a value of 1.71. The process of nitrification in both reactors was qualified
as stable when oxygen concentration was between 1 and 2 mgO2·dm-3.
