Abstract: | The kinetics of anaerobic treatment of slaughterhouse wastewater in batch and upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactors was investigated. Different concentrations of organic matter in slaughterhouse wastewater did not change the first order kinetics of the reaction. In batch digesters, methane and nitrogen production stopped after 30-40, 20-30 h, respectively, and in UASB reactors it was terminated after 30-40 days. The constant of velocity was 3.93 and 0.23 h(-1) respectively, for methane and nitrogen production. The yield coefficient, Yp was 343 and 349 ml CH4 per g of chemical oxygen demand at standard temperature and pressure conditions for batch reactors and UASB reactor, respectively. |
