Performance and Operational Characteristics of Modified Anaerobic Hybrid Baffled (MAHB) Reactor Treating Low Strength Recycled Paper Mill Effluent (RPME) wastewater / Siti Roshayu Hassan, Nastaein Qamaruz Zaman and Irvan Dahlan

The performance and operational characteristics of a laboratory scale modified anaerobic hybrid baffled (MAHB) reactor were studied using recycled paper mill effluent (RPME) wastewater. MAHB reactor was continuously operated at 35°C for 90 days with organic loading rate (OLR) increased from 0.14 to...
