Book Application of Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket  UASB  Reactor for Food Waste and Pome Treatment with Biogas Production

Download or read book Application of Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket UASB Reactor for Food Waste and Pome Treatment with Biogas Production written by Muhammad Asif Latif and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The need for clean water is rising and anaerobic wastewater treatment can be used as a cost effective way out for biodegradation and energy production of organically polluted industrial waste streams. Indeed, the anaerobic digestion process can be applied to conduct various types of wastewaters in a more sustainable way than alternative processes. Applications comprise the treatment of municipal, industrial, agricultural and farming wastewaters. The upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactor is a system in which substrate passes first through an expanded sludge bed having a high concentration of biomass. Anaerobic treatment of liquidized food waste (LFW) was carried out in UASB reactor by stepwise increase in OLR and temperature. Thermophilic condition was achieved by increasing the temperature from 30-55 oC and pH was maintained at 7±0.5 throughout the experiment. Maximum COD removal efficiency was 93.67% (r=0.84) at an OLR of 12.5 g-COD/L.day and 4 days HRT. Maximum TOC removal efficiency was 79.14% (r=-0.94) at an influent TOC concentration of 3.59 g/L. Biogas and methane yield were recorded to a maximum of 1.364 L/g-CODremoved.day (r=0.81), 0.912 L/g-CODremoved.day (r=0.83) and average methane content of biogas was 63%. The reactor was fully acclimatized at 55oC and achieved stability with high removal efficiency and biogas production. An OLR of 12.5 g-COD/L.day and HRT of 4 days were suitable for the treatment of LFW in UASBR. The treatment process can also be extendable for more than ten weeks without any measurable problem. Anaerobic bach treatment of palm oil mill effluent (POME) was carried out with cement kiln dust (CKD) as neutrilizing agent. The UASB reactor was operated continuously at 35 °C for 41 days, with varying OLR from 1.5 to 4 g-COD/L.day at HRT. The digester pH was improved steadily by increasing CKD concentrations and 23-40 g-CaO/L of CKD dosage was found suitlable to maintan pH above 7.5. The correlation (r=0.78) between CKD dosage and reactor pH showed moderate to strong relationship between CKD and reactor pH. The maximum COD removal of 95% was obtained at 4 days HRT at a highest OLR of 4 g-COD/L.day (r=0.95). The suspended solids profile was drawn along four sampling ports of reactor with increasing CKD dosage and 80% removal of suspended silids was found at 37 g-CaO/L CKD dose (r=0.88) and biogas yield was 0.90 L/g-CODremoved.day. Overall performance of CKD showed satisfactory results by replacing expensive buffer solutions thus giving a new technique of neutrilizing the acidic wastewaters.

Book Domestic Wastewater Treatment in Developing Countries

Download or read book Domestic Wastewater Treatment in Developing Countries written by Duncan Mara and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-17 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Affordable and effective domestic wastewater treatment is a critical issue in public health and disease prevention around the world, particularly so in developing countries which often lack the financial and technical resources necessary for proper treatment facilities. This practical guide provides state-of-the-art coverage of methods for domestic wastewater treatment and provides a foundation to the practical design of wastewater treatment and re-use systems. The emphasis is on low-cost, low-energy, low-maintenance, high-performance 'natural' systems that contribute to environmental sustainability by producing effluents that can be safely and profitably used in agriculture for crop irrigation and/or in aquaculture, for fish and aquatic vegetable pond fertilization. Modern design methodologies, with worked design examples, are described for waste stabilization ponds, wastewater storage and treatment reservoirs; constructed wetlands, upflow anaerobic sludge blanket reactors, biofilters, aerated lagoons and oxidation ditches. This book is essential reading for engineers, academics and upper-level and graduate students in engineering, wastewater management and public health, and others interested in sustainable and cost-effective technologies for reducing wastewater-related diseases and environmental damage.
