“…The composition and quantity of these effluents generated in wineries are different between them and may also vary within the same winery from year to year. The amount of discharged wastewaters and degree of their contamination vary during the year and depend on the operating time period (harvesting, decanting, bottling), the size of the winery and the applied technological procedure (production of white, rose, red or special types of wines) (Brito et al, 2007;Serrano et al, 2011).…”

Summary:Wastewaters from grape processing in wineries are characterized by large seasonal fluctuations in volume and composition, and are often discarded into environment with little or no treatment. The biotechnological production of valuable products is the most promising alternative for reducing the negative environmental impact and recycling these effluents. Results from previous study show that mixed winery wastewaters, after additional optimization of the medium preparation, may be a suitable raw material for industrial xanthan production. Therefore, the aim of this work was to examine the possibility of xanthan production by Xanthomonas campestris ATCC 13951 on mixed wastewaters from different stages of white grape processing in winery with initial sugars content of 20 g/L. In addition to the media characteristics and indicators of biopolymer quality, raw xanthan yield and degree of sugars conversion into product were determined in order to examine the success of performed bioprocess. The results for biopolymer yield (14.66 g/L) and sugars conversion into desired product (70.21%) obtained in applied experimental conditions confirm that wastewaters from white grape processing have a great potential to be used as a substrate for xanthan biosynthesis.

“…Many studies has reported that the brewery effluents are easily biodegradable with high BOD/COD ratio of 0.6-0.7 (Brito et al, 2007;Rao et al, 2007). Nitrogen and phosphorus levels mainly depend on the amount of yeast present in the effluent (Brito et al, 2007;Driessen and Verejiken, 2003).…”

“…Anaerobic digestion is suitable for treating brewery wastewater, because the effluent from the brewery industry is high in strength and easily biodegradable with a high biological oxygen demand (BOD) to chemical oxygen demand (COD) ratio of 0.6-0.7 (Brito et al, 2007;Rao et al, 2007). Currently, upflow anaerobic sludge bed (UASB)…”

The micro-brewery business has been subjected to rapid growth within the last decade.Most brewers are facing expensive wastewater compliance bills and are seeking reliable on-site treatment methods. Anaerobic membrane bioreactor (AnMBR) treatment is favorable to the widely used upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) method. It offers high quality effluent free of solids, and has great stabilities under loading shocks. To date, there have been limited submerged AnMBR studies and none have been conducted on brewery wastewater. In this research, a state-of-the-art AnMBR laboratory scale system was used to investigate the performance and capability. The system was subjected to 230 days continuous operation with both synthetic and real brewery wastewater at organic loading rates (OLRs) ranging from 2 to 11.5 kg COD/m 3 /day. While the system demonstrated an excellent biological performance, the study found that the major limitation of AnMBR was the membrane fouling, which increased with the OLR and soluble microbial products (SMPs) in the mixed liquor.iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

“…Post treatment particulates are generally considered to comprise a blend of relatively unaltered inert particles, partly degraded and reformed material through to those particles completely synthesized in the treatment process [6]. Furthermore, insoluble particulates typically dominate the organics burden in WWW treatment system effluents [9][10][11]. Differences in the structural composition of effluent versus influent particulates are still poorly understood.…”
