High-sulfate, high-chemical oxygen demand wastewater treatment using aerated methanogenic fluidized beds

From: Water Environment Research | Date: January 1, 2000| Author: | Copyright information

ABSTRACT: Many industrial wastewaters have both high organic pollution and sulfate (SO^sup -2^^sub 4^) concentrations. Although biological conversion of organics to methane may be an economical chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal option, significant inhibition of methane production results from reduction of SO^sup -2^^sub 4^ to hydrogen sulfide (H^sub 2^S), which is inhibitory to methanogenic microorganisms. Therefore, sulfatecontaining wastewater is often not amenable to conventional anaerobic treatment. Recently, limited aeration of recycle flow to hybrid and baffled reactors has been used ...
