AB  - A lab-scale membrane bioreactor (MBR) was used to start-up the anaerobic ammonium 
      oxidation (Anammox) process from the conventional activated sludge for 2 months. 
      Results indicated the MBR could be a novel and suitable system for start-up of 
      the Anammox process. The Anammox activity appeared after 16 days operation, and 
      the average removal efficiencies of ammonia and nitrite were both over 90% in the 
      end. A final specific Anammox activity of 0.35 g NH(4)(+)-N+NO(2)(-)-N (gVSS 
      *d)(-1) was obtained. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis 
      confirmed the existence of Anammox bacteria and aerobic ammonia oxidizing 
      bacteria. On the basis of results on MBR performance and FISH analysis, it was 
      proposed that the start-up process was essentially a microbial community 
      succession under man-made disturbance, and a climax community with Anammox 
      bacteria as the dominant population was finally established.
