“…A reduction in COD initially increased, and then decreased with an increase in u. For example, it can be noticed in Figure 4 liquid) area increased, and consequently the amount of the oxygen supplied for biomass growth increased [1,14]. for the air velocities greater than 0.014 m/s, the degradation rate of the constituents of the wastewaters was the controlling factor of the treatment process [3,15].…”

“…Sokół and Korpal [1] have established that the optimal ratio (V b /V R ) for a FBBR when used in biological wastewater treatment was equal to 0.55. Therefore, in this study experiments were performed for the ratio (V b /V R ) = 0.55.…”

“…Then the culture was incubated for approximately 48 h to encourage cell growth and the adhesion of freely suspended biomass on the particles. The air was supplied at the flow rate of 0.03 m 3 /s and this was found to be sufficient for biomass growth [1,3]. The pH was controlled in the range 6.5 -7.0 and the temperature was maintained at 28˚C -30˚C.…”

“…This was possible because the reactor was operated at the ratio (V b /V R ) = 0.55 which was smaller than the critical ratio (V b /V R ) cr [1,9]. On the other hand, the air velocities u were smaller than the critical velocity u cr at which the entire bed settled at the reactor bottom.…”

“…Biological wastewater treatment conducted in systems based on activated sludge requires retention time of many days [1,2]. On the other hand, the same treatment can be achieved in a fluidized bed biofilm reactor (FBBR) in retention time of several hours [1,3].…”
