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.

In this paper aerobic process was applied in an anaerobic baffled reactor to form an innovative Hybrid Baffled Reactor (HBR), which was used to investigate the treatment effect of livestock and poultry farming wastewater. Biofilm cultivation, the influence of Hydraulic Retention Time (HRT) and treatment effect in three tanks were also discussed. The study result showed that good COD and NH4+-N removal efficiency was achieved in the reactor. When the influent COD concentration, NH4+-N concentration and HRT were 900 mg/L, 200 mg/L and 24 h, the concentrations of COD and NH4+-N in the outlet were smaller than 100 mg/L and 70 mg/L, and COD removal efficiency and nitrification rate were 90% and 70% respectively.

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.

Abstract Background : Wastewater from agro-industries such as slaughterhouse is typical organic wastewater with high value of biochemical oxygen demand, chemical oxygen demand, biological organic nutrients (Nitrogen and phosphate) which are insoluble, slowly biodegradable solids, pathogenic and non-pathogenic bacteria and viruses, parasite eggs. Moreover it contains high protein and putrefies fast leading to environmental pollution problem. This indicates that slaughterhouses are among the most environmental polluting agro-industries. Anaerobic digestion is a sequence of metabolic steps involving consortiums of several microbial populations to form a complex metabolic interaction network resulting in the conversation of organic matter into methane (CH 4 ), carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) and other trace compounds. Separation of the phase permits the optimization of the organic loading rate and HRT based on the requirements of the microbial consortiums of each phase. The purpose of this study was to optimize the working conditions for the hydrolytic - acidogenic stage in two step/phase anaerobic digestion of slaughterhouse wastewater. The setup of the laboratory scale reactor was established at Center for Environmental Science, College of Natural Science with a total volume of 40 liter (36 liter working volume and 4 liter gas space). The working parameters for hydrolytic - acidogenic stage were optimized for six hydraulic retention time 1-6 days and equivalent organic loading rate of 5366.43 – 894.41 mg COD/L day to evaluate the effect of the working parameters on the performance of hydrolytic – acidogenic reactor. Result : The finding revealed that hydraulic retention time of 3 day with organic loading rate of 1,788.81 mg COD/L day was a as an optimal working conditions for the parameters under study for the hydrolytic - acidogenic stage. The degree of hydrolysis and acidification were mainly influenced by lower hydraulic retention time (higher organic loading rate) and highest values recorded were 63.92 % at hydraulic retention time of 3 day and 53.26% at hydraulic retention time of 2 day respectively. Conclusion : The finding of the present study indicated that at steady state the concentration of soluble chemical oxygen demand and total volatile fatty acids increase as hydraulic retention time decreased or organic loading rate increased from 1 day hydraulic retention time to 3 day hydraulic retention time and decreases as hydraulic retention time increase from 4 to 6 day. The lowest concentration of NH 4 + -N and highest degree of acidification was also achieved at hydraulic retention time of 3 day. Therefore, it can be concluded that hydraulic retention time of 3 day/organic loading rate of 1,788.81 mg COD/L .day was selected as an optimal working condition for the high performance and stability during the two stage anaerobic digestion of slaughterhouse wastewater for the hydrolytic-acidogenic stage under mesophilic temperature range selected (37.5℃).

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

Algal incorporation into the biomass is important in an innovative wastewater treatment that exploits the symbiosis between bacterial activated sludge and microalgae (Chlorella vulgaris sp. Hamburg). It allows a good and easy algae separation by means of clarification. The effect of process parameters food to microorganisms ratio (F/M) and hydraulic retention time (HRT) on the process performance, evaluated by settleability, microalgae incorporation to biomass and nutrient removal, was studied. HRT hinted at a significant influence in the growth rate of algae, while F/M turned out to be important for stability when algae are incorporated into the biomass. This parameter also affects the total nitrogen removal of the treatment. Stable flocs with incorporated algae and supernatants with low free swimming algae concentrations were obtained at high HRT and low F/M values.
