Abstract: Granulation was examined in the 12.3 L upflow anaerobic sludge blanket reactor at the average ambient temperature of 21.8°C. Brewery wastewater with an average chemical oxygen demand (COD) of 2,030 mg/L and biochemical ...

Abstract: Microbial granulation was examined in four lab-scale upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactors under varied microbial load indices (MLIs). The dimensionless MLI is defined as the ratio of the sludge loading rate to ...

Abstract: In this study, phenol degradation was investigated, with and without glucose as a cosubstrate, in batch and continuous studies. The two 2-L lab upflow anaerobic sludge blanket reactors were operated at a constant hydraulic ...
