Contents Notes |
"Three pilot plants were built to compare three types of anaerobic wastewater treatment systems: the upflow sludge bed, the anaerobic filter, and the fluidized bed. Startup of the systems was accomplished in 6 weeks by seeding them with sewage plant digester sludge acclimated to the waste. The units removed 80% to 90% COD from the neutralized foul condensate of a paper mill at a loading of 6 to 7 kg COD/m3 per day. At this loading, the anaerobic filter and upflow-bed sludge units performed at about the same levels although effluent solids from the upflow bed were higher. The fluidized bed system produced somewhat greater removals of organics and had the lowest effluent solids concentration. Operation of the systems will be continued for several additional months for further comparisons of the units' capacities and performances. Loadings will be increased at a rate that will permit the units to maintain reasonable removal levels and effluent volatile acids." |
