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...

this research was conducted in continuous flow bench scale fixed activated sludge (fas) and anaerobic filter (af). the main objective of the research was to study the feasibility and efficiency of the mentioned systems for cr (vi) removal. in fas reactor, cr (vi) was adsorbed from influent to mlss in the range of 89 to 99 percent and the adsorption followed freundlich isotherm. in af reactor, c...

to study the feasibility of anaerobic filter in raw sewage and slaughter house wastewater treatment, slaughter house wastewater treatment, a batch flow pilot plant was designed. in phase one, with a detention time of 3-days and no mixing, the maximum reduction in cod was 23%. in the second phase, with a detention time of 2-days and complete mixing, glucose was added to the raw sewage, the reduc...

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 ...
