Performance Assessment of a UASB Reactor Coupled with Polymeric Filter Media for Nutrient Removal
View through CrossRef
Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the performance of the UASB reactor coupled with polymeric filter media as a post-treatment unit. The UASB reactor achieved the steady-state condition after 100 days of operation. The COD removal efficiency was 85.54 ± 6.53%, and biogas production (methane 75.5 ± 10.25 and carbon dioxide 25 ± 10.5) at the optimum temperature of 30 ± 5ºC, HRT 6.5 hr, and OLR 0.731 ± 0.163 kg COD/m³/d was observed. The effluent of the UASB reactor contains nutrients (TP and TKN), which require further treatment for their removal. The post-treatment of effluent of the UASB reactor was done at the optimized flow rate of 100 ml/hr and bed height of 20 cm for nutrient removal by polymeric filter media (chitosan-agarose cryogel). It was validated by Thomas Kinetic plot with R² > 0.85.
