Application of Biofilm Modeling and Dynamic Aeration Control for Optimization of Pilot Scale Granular Sludge SBR Treating Slaughterhouse Wastewater

Abstract

AbstractThe present study evaluated the performance of a 330 L on-site pilot-scale aerobic granular sludge sequencing batch reactor (AGS-SBR) in removing COD, total nitrogen (TN), and phosphorus (PO43−–P) from slaughterhouse wastewater. The effectiveness ...The graphical abstract titled “Aerobic Granular Sludge – Sequencing Batch Reactor” summarizes the treatment of high-strength slaughterhouse wastewater using an aerobic granular sludge SBR system. The left part of the figure highlights the wastewater’s ...Practical ApplicationsSlaughterhouse wastewater is complex and produced in large volumes, containing high levels of organics and nutrients that are difficult to treat using conventional methods. Inadequate treatment can cause eutrophication, oxygen ...
