Phenolic and petrochemical wastewater treatment in AnMBR under extreme conditions: High salinity, high temperature, and high concentration of toxic compounds

Anaerobic digestion (AD) is a biochemical process in which organic matter is converted into biogas in a series of biochemical reactions. The development of high-rate anaerobic reactors (HRAR) led to the breakthrough of full-scale applications of AD for the treatment of industrial wastewater. HRARs, such as the upflow anaerobic sludge blanket ...

Assessment of the anaerobic biodegradability of bitumen fume condensate wastewater by mesophilic AnMBR

Certain industrial wastewaters have posed a challenge to water treatment systems because of their composition. The bitumen from the reclaimed asphalt process is heated by the BAM Infra Asfalt and produces fumes, which are usually sent to the air filters and then out through the chimney. To recover the heat lost through the fume, it is condensed....
