Bio-filtration Performance of Petrochemical Wastewater using Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor

Continuous stirred tank reactors (CSTR) operated at 35"C, were efficaciously used for the anaerobic digestion of a petrochemical effluent. Bio-filtration of petrochemical wastewater was carried out and the results were evaluated in terms of basic water quality parameters. The effects of organic...

Bio-filtration of petrochemical wastewater was carried out and the results were evaluated in terms of basic water quality parameters. The effects of organic loadings, solid retention time were also investigated. COD reductions of 93-98% were found at an optimum retention time of 2.3 days and a loading rate of 4.7 kg COD/m3/d.

Therefore, the current work revils that bio-filtration of petrochemical wastewater using CSTR might be an effective solution to the prevailing treatment limitation.
