Anaerobic reactor development for complex organic wastewater
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Anaerobic treatment is applied extensively of removal of organic pollutants (COD) from wastewater. It is more competitive than aerobic treatment in applications where the quantity of COD to be removed is large. The major fraction of COD is converted to useful methane gas, and only a small fraction becomes waste sludge. The COD loading rate of anaerobic reactors is higher than that of aerobic reactors and hence small reactors are sufficient for the treatment of same quantity of COD.

Anaerobic Biotechnology for Pharmaceutical Wastewater Treatment
The wastewater generated from the pharmaceutical industry contain high organic load and the treatment are primarily carried out using two major types of biological methods; aerobic and anaerobic. However, due to high strength, it is infeasible to treat some pharmaceutical wastewater using aerobic biological processes. As an alternative, an anaerobic process is preferred to remove high strength ...

متن کاملTreatment of poultry slaughterhouse wastewater in upflow anaerobic filter under low upflow velocity
The wastewater discharged by poultry slaughterhouse industries are characterized mainly by high biochemical oxygen demand, high suspended solids and complex mixture of fats, proteins and fibers requiring systematic treatment prior to disposal. In this study, the performance of an upflow anaerobic filter reactor for treating Indian poultry slaughterhouse wastewater under low upflow velocity of 1...

Background: Slaughterhouse wastewater (SWW) is hardly treated due to the large amount of organic matter, nutrients and suspended solids. These materials are naturally decomposed through biological processes, and then environmental pollution, transmission of pathogens and problems become smelled. Conventional purification methods require high investment costs, high energy consumption and expert ...
متن کاملAnaerobic Treatment of Petroleum Refinery Wastewater
Anaerobic treatment has many advantages over other biological method particularly when used to treat complex wastewater such as petroleum refinery wastewater. In this study two Up-flow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket (UASB) reactors were operated in parallel to treat six volumetric organic loads (0.58, 1.21, 0.89, 2.34, 1.47 and 4.14 kg COD/m·d) to evaluate the chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal eff...
