Enhanced treatment of composite industrial wastewater using anaerobic‐anoxic‐oxic membrane bioreactor: performance, membrane fouling and microbial community
Abstract:BACKGROUND: A laboratory-scale anaerobic-anoxic-oxic membrane bioreactor (AAO-MBR) system was used to remove organic compounds and nitrogen in the composite industrial wastewater collected from an industrial park.
RESULTS:The recommended conditions for both chemical oxygen demand (COD) and nitrogen removal were as follows: hydraulic retention time of 73.6 h, sludge retention time of 35 days and mixed liquor return ratio of 300%. Under this condition, COD and total nitrogen removal efficiencies were 89.4% and 7… 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.
