Tofu which is made by grinding soy bean, generates huge amount of wastewater and thus considered as one of the most polluted food-industrial effluent owing to its high values of organic contents. The small industries of tofu preparation process release the wastewater directly into the water body without being treated first. Prior to discharge this wastewater into the waterbody, the wastewater must be treated to reduce the possibility of negative impact and the contamination of the waterbody. For these small industries, the best alternative of wastewater treatment is one which has the following criteria: easy in operation, low cost operation, low volumes of sludge produced, and can be used in high concentration wastewater. In this research, bioreactor anaerobic-aerobic with media bioball is used. The highest removal efficiency of COD took place in anaerobic zones. Bioreactors were operated with the variations of retention time at 24 hours, 18 hours, and 12 hours. The COD removal efficiency for Hydraulic Retention Time (HRT) of 24 hours, 18 hours and 12 hours were found 90.3% (organic loading rate is 15.1 kg COD/m3.day), 84.4% and 76.3% respectively. The experiment showed that the longer of the hydraulic retention time (HRT), the higher the removal efficiency could be achieved. These occurred because a longer HRT will extend the contact time between wastewater and microorganisms attached. Therefore, microorganisms have a longer time to degrade organic matter in wastewater. Although the removal efficiency in these three-HRT was found high, the effluent of the reactor was still above the effluent standard based on regulation of Ministry of Environmental Permen LH No. 5/2014. Kinetics using Eckenfelder Equation results R2 equal to 0.9991, n equal to 0.293 and K equivalent to 7.3577 mg/L. Keywords: tofu wastewater, anaerobe, aerobe, bioball, wastewater, treatment, attached growth

Amaç: Doğal sularda değişen yapılarda ve konsantrasyonlarda sülfat bileşikleri bulunmaktadır. Ayrıca bazı endüstriyel atıksuların sülfat miktarı yüksektir ve doğal sulara karıştıklarında alıcı ortamdaki sülfat miktarını arttırmaktadır. Mevcut aerobik sistemlerin artan enerji maliyetlerinin işletme giderimini önemli ölçüde yükseltmesi nedeniyle anaerobik sistemler ekonomik bir atıksu arıtma alternatifi olarak önem kazanmıştır. Bu yüzden son zamanlarda yapılan çalışmalar sülfat içeren atıksuların arıtımında anaerobik arıtımın üzerine yoğunlaşmıştır. Anaerobik arıtım sistemlerinden anaerobik perdeli reaktör (APR) yapılan çalışmalar ışığında sülfat indirgenmesi için iyi bir stratejidir. Fakat sülfat içeren atıksuların anaerobik arıtım performansını etkileyen birçok parametre mevcuttur. Bu çalışmada farklı hidrolik bekleme sürelerinin (HBS) anaerobik perdeli reaktörde yüksek sülfat konsantrasyonuna sahip atıksuların arıtılabilirlik çalışmasına etkisi araştırılmıştır. Tasarım ve Yöntem: APR yukarı akışlı anaerobik çamur yataklı reaktörün bir modifikasyonudur. Kullanılan APR’nin uzunluğu 80 cm, genişliği ve derinliği ise 20 cm’dir. Reaktör camdan imal edilmiş olup toplam su hacmi 19 L’dir. Reaktör perdeler ile 4,75 L’lik dört eşit bölmeye ayrılmıştır. Ayrıca, yönlendirme perdeleri kullanılarak reaktöre beslenen atıksuyun çamur yatağında aşağıdan yukarıya doğru bir yol izlemesi sağlanmıştır. Çalışmada sentetik atıksu kullanılıp elektron verici olarak etanol, elektron alıcı olarak ise sülfat kullanılmıştır. Reaktörün her bölmesinden pH, alkalinite, kimyasal oksijen ihtiyacı (KOİ), sülfat ve sülfür tayinleri için haftada 3 gün numune alınmıştır. Bulgular: APR 120 gün boyunca farklı HBS’lerde (2; 1,5; 1; 0,5 gün) işletilerek arıtım performansı izlenmiştir. Bekleme süresinin 2 gün olduğu çalışma koşullarında çıkış suyundaki KOİ ve SO4-2 verimleri %84 ile %88 olarak gözlemlenirken bekleme süresinin 0,5 gün olduğu çalışma koşullarında ise bu değer %80 ve %75 olarak gözlemlenmiştir. Ayrıca bekleme süresinin 2 gün olduğu çalışma koşullarında son bölmedeki sülfür oluşum verimi % 75 iken, bekleme süresi 0,5 güne indirildiğinde aynı bölmedeki sülfür oluşum veriminin %96’a çıktığı gözlemlenmiştir. Çıkarımlar ve Özgün Değer: Yapılan bu çalışma ile yüksek sülfat konsantrasyona sahip atıksuların arıtımında anaerobik perdeli reaktörün iyi bir alternatif olabileceği kanıtlanmıştır. Ayrıca çıkış sülfat ve sülfür konsantrasyonlarının değişen HBS’den etkilenmediği gözlenmiştir. Effect of Different Hydraulic Retention Time (HRT) on Sulfate Reduction in Anaerobic Baffled Reactor Design and Method: The anaerobic baffled reactor (ABR) is a modification of up-flow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactor. A laboratory scale ABR was inoculated with an effluent of a full scale anaerobic digester located in Kayseri Wastewater Treatment Plant, Turkey. Before inoculation, the sludge was sieved to remove coarse materials. The ABR was 20 cm wide, 80 cm long, 20 cm deep and constructed from glass, with a working volume of 19 L. Reactor was divided into four equal 4.75 L compartments by vertical baffles, each compartment having down-comer and riser regions created by further vertical baffle. The lower parts of down-comer baffles were angled at 450 in order to direct the flow evenly through the riser. Ethanol and sulfate are consumed as electron donor and electron acceptor, respectively. Sulfate, dissolved sulfide, pH, alkalinity and chemical oxygen demand (COD) have measured three times a week. Aim: There are varying structures and concentrations of sulfate compounds in natural waters. In addition, the amount of sulfate is higher in some industrial wastewaters In addition, some industrial wastewaters and natural waters. Due to rise energy costs of existing aerobic systems, anaerobic systems have gained importance as an economic alternative to wastewater treatment. So that, recent studies have focused on anaerobic treatment of wastewaters containing sulfate. Anaerobic baffled reactor (ABR) from anaerobic systems is a good strategy for the reduction of sulfate. However, many parameters that affect the performance of anaerobic treatment of wastewater containing sulfate are available. In this study, treatability wastewater containing high sulfate concentration investigated the effect of hydraulic retention times (HRT). Results: The performance of different hydraulic retention times (2; 1.5; 1; 0.5 day) were observed in ABR operated for 120 days. In working conditions of HRT is 2 days COD and sulfate removal efficiciency, respectively, were observed in 88% and 84% while in working conditions of HRT is 0.5 days these efficiencies were observed in 80% and 75%. Also the yield of sulfur formation under the same conditions had risen from 75% to 96% in last compartment. Inferences and Original Value: In this study, in anaerobic baffled reactor treatment of wastewaters with high sulfate concentration has proven to be a good alternative. Effluent sulfate and sulphur concentrations have not effected from varying hydraulic retention times.

Pharmaceutical residues in wastewater pose a challenge to wastewater treatment technologies. Constructed wetlands (CWs) are common wastewater treatment systems in rural areas and they discharge often in small water courses in which the ecology can be adversely affected by the discharged pharmaceuticals. Hence, there is a need for studies aiming to improve the removal of pharmaceuticals in CWs. In this study, the performance of a full-scale aerated sub-surface flow hybrid CW treating wastewater from a healthcare facility was studied in terms of common water parameters and pharmaceutical removal. In addition, a preliminary aquatic risk assessment based on hazard quotients was performed to estimate the likelihood of adverse effects on aquatic organisms in the forest creek where this CW discharges. The (combined) effect of aeration and hydraulic retention time (HRT) was evaluated in a laboratory-scale batch experiment. Excellent removal of the targeted pharmaceuticals was obtained in the full-scale CW (>90%) and, as a result, the aquatic risk was estimated low. The removal efficiency of only a few of the targeted pharmaceuticals was found to be dependent on the applied aeration (namely gabapentin, metformin and sotalol). Longer and the HRT increased the removal of carbamazepine, diclofenac and tramadol.

Effective nitrogen removal is now required to protect water quality in sensitive coastal areas. This involves a much more difficult treatment process than for conventional domestic sewage as wastewater quantity and quality exhibits severe fluctuations in touristic zones. Activated sludge is currently the most widely used wastewater treatment and may be upgraded as a predenitrification system for nitrogen removal. Interpretation of nitrification and denitrification kinetics reveal a number of useful correlations between significant parameters such as sludge age, C/N ratio, hydraulic retention time, total influent COD. Nitrogen removal potential of predenitrification may be optimized by careful evaluation of wastewater character and the kinetic correlations.

A single full-scale primary facultative pond in Sapé, north-east Brazil was monitored for performance and efficiency. The pond had a hydraulic retention time of 61 days and achieved a 95% BOD5 removal efficiency and had no helminth eggs in the effluent. The effluent failed to meet the WHO faecal coliform guideline for unrestricted irrigation. The pond was dominated by the cyanobacterium Microcystis and gave better than predicted orthophosphate removal. Details of how the system could be simply upgraded utilizing the same land are discussed.
