Effects of Fe2+ on sludge granulation in upflow anaerobic sludge blanket reactors
Experiments were performed in parallel using six identical UASB (upflow anaerobic sludge blanket) reactors to examine the effects of iron (Fe2+) on sludge granulation during start-up. Introduction of Fe2+ at concentrations of 300 and 450 mg/L enhanced the granulation process in UASB reactors, while dosage of Fe2+ (150 mg/L) had little effect on the sludge granulation. The Fe2+concentration in g...
متن کاملBiomethane production from vinasse in upflow anaerobic sludge blanket reactors inoculated with granular sludge
The main objective of this study was to evaluate the anaerobic conversion of vinasse into biomethane with gradual increase in organic loading rate (OLR) in two upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactors, R1 and R2, with volumes of 40.5 and 21.5L in the mesophilic temperature range. The UASB reactors were operated for 230 days with a hydraulic detection time (HDT) of 2.8d (R1) and 2.8-1.8d ...
متن کاملBiological sulphate reduction with primary sewage sludge in an upflow anaerobic sludge bed reactor – Part 5: Steady-state model
This paper describes the development of a steady-state anaerobic digestion model for biological sulphate reduction using primary sewage sludge (PSS) as substrate. The model comprises: a chemical oxygen demand (COD) based hydrolysis kinetics part in which the PSS biodegradable COD and sulphate removals are calculated for given hydraulic and sludge retention times; a C, H, O, N, P, S, COD and cha...
متن کاملFeasibility of expanded granular sludge bed reactors for the anaerobic treatment of low-strength soluble wastewaters.
The application of the expanded granular sludge bed (EGSB) reactor for the anaerobic treatment of low-strength soluble wastewaters using ethanol as a model substrate was investigated in laboratory-scale reactors at 30oC. Chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal efficiency was above 80% at organic loading rates up to12 g COD/L . d with influent concentrations as low as 100 to 200 mg COD/L. These res...
متن کاملInfluence of polymer addition on granulation in upflow anaerobic sludge blanket reactor: A review
The upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactor has been used successfully treat a variety of wastewaters. The aim of this review is to synthesize and analyze information on how the process of granulation is affected by environmental and operational conditions in the reactor. The factors reviewed are strength of substrate, nutrients, multivalent cations and heavy metals, exocellular polymer,...
