Abstract
A laboratory-scale, two-phase multi-staged up-flow anaerobic sludge blanket (MS-UASB) treatment system was monitored over time in order to evaluate its treatment efficiency and performance when treating non-diluted industrial tapioca starch wastewater under ambient temperature in Thailand. The system consisted of an acidification (AC) reactor and MS-UASB reactor and was operated for 280 days. The two-phase MS-UASB achieved a maximum organic loading rate (OLR) of 8 kg-COD/m3/day for the overall system and reached 80.5% of chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal efficiency. Based on the inlet wastewater of each reactor, the AC reactor removed 61.85% of suspended solids and achieved acidification of the wastewater to produce volatile fatty acids at over 50%. Meanwhile, the MS-UASB reactor achieved 74.5% COD removal efficiency. Further analysis found that the increase in soluble extracellular polymeric substances per bound extracellular polymeric substances (S-EPS/B-EPS) was related to the floating sludge phenomenon, which occurred under excess OLR condition.
期刊介绍：
The Environment and Natural Resources Journal is a peer-reviewed journal, which provides insight scientific knowledge into the diverse dimensions of integrated environmental and natural resource management. The journal aims to provide a platform for exchange and distribution of the knowledge and cutting-edge research in the fields of environmental science and natural resource management to academicians, scientists and researchers. The journal accepts a varied array of manuscripts on all aspects of environmental science and natural resource management. The journal scope covers the integration of multidisciplinary sciences for prevention, control, treatment, environmental clean-up and restoration. The study of the existing or emerging problems of environment and natural resources in the region of Southeast Asia and the creation of novel knowledge and/or recommendations of mitigation measures for sustainable development policies are emphasized. The subject areas are diverse, but specific topics of interest include: -Biodiversity -Climate change -Detection and monitoring of polluted sources e.g., industry, mining -Disaster e.g., forest fire, flooding, earthquake, tsunami, or tidal wave -Ecological/Environmental modelling -Emerging contaminants/hazardous wastes investigation and remediation -Environmental dynamics e.g., coastal erosion, sea level rise -Environmental assessment tools, policy and management e.g., GIS, remote sensing, Environmental -Management System (EMS) -Environmental pollution and other novel solutions to pollution -Remediation technology of contaminated environments -Transboundary pollution -Waste and wastewater treatments and disposal technology
