“…This is a common problem in CW treatment. As the substrate loading increases the acidogenic region extends into the methanogenic region in the upper part of the reactor until the whole region becomes acidogenic, leading to the failure of the reactor [77,119].…”

Abstract:Cheese whey utilization is of major concern nowadays. Its high organic matter content, in combination with the high volumes produced and limited treatment options make cheese whey a serious environmental problem. However, the potential production of biogas (methane), hydrogen or other marketable products with a simultaneous high COD reduction through appropriate treatment proves that cheese whey must be considered as an energy resource rather than a pollutant. The presence of biodegradable components in the cheese whey coupled with the advantages of anaerobic digestion processes over other treatment methods makes anaerobic digestion an attractive and suitable treatment option. This paper intends to review the most representative applications of anaerobic treatment of cheese whey currently being exploited and under research. Moreover, an effort has been made to categorize the common characteristics of the various research efforts and find a comparative basis, as far as their results are concerned. In addition, a number of dairy industries already using such anaerobic digestion systems are presented.

“…Results mentioned in the literature show much higher COD removal rate, but those results were obtained from different anaerobic processes. For example, Malaspina et al (1996) achieved a COD removal up to 98% in a down-flow and up-flow hybrid reactor connected serially, Lo and Liao (1989) achieved more than 75% COD removal in a lab-scale rotating anaerobic contact reactor, Yan et al (1990) achieved a COD removal of 98% in a lab-scale upward-flow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactor, Patel et al (1995) achieved a COD removal of 81% in an up-flow fixed film anaerobic reactor. Co-digestion of whey with manure has also some other advantages such as protection of environment against pollution, improving the fertilizer value of the manure and recycling of nutrients back into the agricultural sector.…”

Biogas production from three different sources namely, cattle manure, cheese whey and blood, which have different characteristics, were investigated comparatively. Biogas production rates of 0.63, 0,72 and 0,64 l min PO were observed in 30 days of digestion of manure. The amount of total nitrogen (Tot-N) decreased 10% in 30 days of digestion but ammonium-nitrogen (Am-N) increased 46% at the same duration of time. Manure, during co-digestion, buffered and inoculated the cheese whey and blood, and converted them to the energy source. An average COD removal of 52% or 34% is also possible during co-digestion of cheese whey or blood with manure.
