Abstract:This laboratory research was carried out to evaluate the performance of a multistage anaerobic biofilm reactor, with six compartments and a working volume of 70 L, for the treatment of a strong synthetic nitrogenous and high-strength wastewater at an operational temperature of 26ºC ± 0.5ºC. Initially, the performance of the reactor was studied when subjected to an increase in the hydraulic retention time (HRT) at a constant influent COD concentration of 10000 mg/L. Five different HRTs were studied: 0.25, 0.67,… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
