In housing developments devoid of any sewage disposal system, a sustainable alternative is to decentralize management of the liquid and solid wastes generated by the residents. The trend in this type of establishment is to triturate the putrescible organic waste (leftovers from food and vegetable peelings), before discharging into the sewage network to be subsequently treated in an appropriate manner. In order to simulate a decentralized treatment system, two parallel treatment systems were operated in sequencing batch cycles with similar characteristics and monitored. The first system consisted of a sequential batch reactor (SBR 1) with a cell retention time (CRT) of 5 days and was fed with raw sewage, enriched with cooked and shredded cereals. The second system SBR 2, had a CRT of 3.36 days with a substrate of sewage mixed with ground up sludge as a carbon source. Respirometry tests were also performed as a tool to compare the biodegradability of the substrates used during the experimental period. The results with enriched sewage showed a satisfactory concentration of biodegradable COD, which provided greater efficiency during the COD, phosphorus and nitrogen removals, exceeding the concentration of biodegradable COD in SBR2 enriched with crushed sludge. The percentage COD removals for systems RBS1 and RBS2 were 93 and 80% respectively, and for phosphorus, 83 and 54% respectively, indicating that the available concentration of biodegradable organic matter in the cereal was enough to satisfactorily release phosphorus into the anaerobic zone. The percentage removals of ammonia in SBR1 and SBR2 were 98% and 40% respectively, almost all the ammonia was oxidized in SBR1 suggesting optimal conditions, which was not the case for SBR 2. The average concentration of nitrate in the effluent of SBR1 was 1.67mgN-NO 3 /L and 9.48mgN-NO /L in the effluent of SBR 2. These findings for ammonia and nitrate in the effluent, confirm the efficiency of nitrification in SBR 1 which approached 100% and that denitrification was completed successfully, whereas in SBR 2 nitrification was less than 50%, demonstrating the lack of available biodegradable COD which is necessary for denitrification and thus leading to a high concentration of nitrate in the effluent.
