abstract

anaerobic treatment methods are more suitable for the treatment of concentrated wastewater streams, offer lower operating costs, the production of usable biogas product. the aim of this study was to investigate the performance of an anaerobic fluidized bed reactor (afbr)-aerobic moving bed bio reactor (mbbr) in series arrangement to treat currant wastewater.the bed materials of afbr were cylindrical particles made of pvc with a diameter of 2-2.3 mm, particle density of 1250 kg/m(3). the volume of all bed materials was 1.7 liter which expanded to 2.46 liters in fluidized situation. in mbbr, support media was composed of 1.5 liters bee-cell 2000 having porosity of 87% and specific surface area of 650m(2)/m(3).when system operated at 35 ºc, chemical oxygen demand (cod) removal efficiencies were achieved to 98% and 81.6% for organic loading rates (olr) of 9.4 and 24.2 g cod/l.d, and hydraulic retention times (hrt) of 48 and 18 h, in average cod concentration feeding of 18.4 g/l, respectively.the contribution of afbr in total cod removal efficiency at an organic loading rate (olr) of 9.4 g cod/l.d was 95%, and gradually decreased to 76.5% in olr of 24.2 g cod/l.d. also with increasing in organic loading rate the contribution of aerobic reactor in removing cod gradually decreased. in this system, the anaerobic reactor played the most important role in the removal of cod, and the aerobic mbbr was actually needed to polish the anaerobic treated wastewater.

Poultry Slaughterhouse Wastewater Treatment Using Anaerobic Fluid Bed Reactor and Aerobic Mobile-Bed Biological Reactor

This research evaluated the efficiency of combined anaerobic-aerobic processes for the treatment of slaughterhouse wastewater. The anaerobic reactor consists of a 3.95 L Plexiglas column with 60 mm diameter and 140 cm height. The cylindrical particles of polyvinyl chloride with 2 mm diameter and 1250 kg m-3 density packed to 60 cm of column were used as biomass saving material. The d...

Control of a Fluidized Bed Polyethylene Reactor

In present paper, dynamic behavior and control of a fluidized bed reactor for polyethylene production has been considered. A double active sites model for Ziegler-Natta catalysts is used for simulation of polymerization reaction. Hydrodynamic behavior of the bed is modeled using a two phase model including bubble and emulsion phases in which bubble phase has plug flow pattern with different...
