Abstract:
Anaerobic Digestion has gained popularity in recent years due to its significant contribution towards achieving waste management and renewable energy targets. One particular technology that has been widely used in the treatment of high strength organic wastewaters across a wide range of industries is upflow anaerobic sludge blankets (UASBs). A malt ingredients manufacturing factory has successfully applied this technology as a cost effective way to treat their high strength effluent, however unlike other industries there is a lack of research regarding the wastewater characterisation or UASB p

Abstract:
Presently anaerobic wastewater treatment is becoming an accepted simple technology for the treatment of a variety of wastewaters. Of the different treatment systems that have been developed the UASB process (Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket) has found the widest application. Almost all of the more than 60 full scale UASB reactors in operation now, are running satisfactorily. The excellent sludge retention generally found in UASB-reactors is obtained by sludge granulation, which can be seen as a sludge immobilization process. The presently available insight into the sludge granulation process is

Abstract:
Performance of laboratory-scale aerobic and anaerobic systems treating food-processing wastewater was investigated. The results obtained showed that BOD and COD of wastewater discharged from a potato-chips factory can be reduced by 86% and 82% using UASB reactor at an organic loading rate (OLR) of 2.9 kg BOD/m3·d and a hydraulic retention time (HRT) of 18 hr. Corresponding results for an activated sludge system, operated at an OLR of 8.9 kg BOD/m3·d with a HRT of 6hr were 86% and 84%, respectively.

Abstract:
A pilot UASB reactor coupled with an external ultrafiltration (UF) membrane was operated under three different hydraulic retention times (HRT) for domestic wastewater treatment. The aim was to assess the HRT influence on system performance and fouling. The highest concentrations of COD, total solids, extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) and soluble microbial products (SMP) in UASB effluent and permeate were found when the UASB reactor was operated under the lowest HRT studied (4 hours); although the fulfillment of Mexican Standard for wastewater reclamation was not compromised.

Abstract:
The up-flow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) process has emerged as a promising high-rate anaerobic digestion technology for the treatment of low- to high-strength soluble and complex wastewaters. Sewage, a complex wastewater, contains 30–70% particulate chemical oxygen demand (CODP). These particulate organics degrade at a slower rate than the soluble organics found in sewage. Accumulation of non-degraded suspended solids can lead to a reduction of active biomass in the reactor and hence a deterioration in its performance in terms of acid accumulation and poor biogas production.

Recent UASB-pilot plant and full scale experiences show that anaerobic pre-treatment is feasible for sewage and domestic wastewaters in tropical regions. This offers developing countries the unique opportunity to become completely self-sufficient in this respect. UASB-systems can be applied at very small and at very big scale, i.e. for off-site and (house and community) on-site treatment. Results obtained in pilot plant and full scale installations demonstrate that these systems are quite effective in removing and stabilizing organic pollutants at liquid detention times as low as 4 hrs, i.e. a
