Effect of Different Operational Conditions on the Treatment Performance of Milk Processing Wastewater (MPW) Using a Single Stage Flexible Fibre Biofilm Reactor (SS-FFBR).

The performance of a biofilm system, single-stage flexible fibre biofilm reactor (SS-FFBR) treating milk processing wastewater (MPW) is evaluated under various process and operational conditions. The system behavior is analyzed with different biological and physical parameters. Results show that the high COD removal efficiency of 95% is obtained at a low COD concentration of 809 mg/L.

Fatigue Assessment of Twin Wire Arc Sprayed and Machine Hammer-Peened ZnAl4 Coatings on S355 JRC+C Substrate.

Structural elements for applications in maritime environments, especially offshore installations, are subjected to various stresses, such as mechanical loads caused by wind or waves and corrosive attacks, e.g., by seawater, mist and weather.

Treatment capacity of a novel flexible fibre biofilm bioreactor treating high-strength milk processing wastewater.

This study was focused on the capacity investigation of a novel multistage flexible fibre biofilm reactor (MS-FFBR) to treat milk processing wastewater (MPW) with high organic loading (OLR). The MS-FFBR performance was evaluated at four intermediate stages separately, and also the final effluent quality of the overall system with an influent chemical oxygen demand (COD) ranged from 1500 ± 20 to 6000 ± 50 mg/L and hydraulic retention times (HRTs) of 8, 12, and 16 h. By comparting the bioreactors into the four stages effectively enhanced the bioreactor's performance.

Performance and kinetics analysis of an aerobic sequencing batch flexible fibre biofilm reactor for milk processing wastewater treatment.

In this study, a sequencing batch flexible fibre biofilm reactor (SB-FFBR) is used for efficient and cost-effective treatment of milk processing wastewater (MPW). The SB-FFBR, modified type of a typical sequencing batch reactor (SBR), is made up of eight bundles of flexible fibre as a supporting media for microorganisms'growth. The working volume and the cycle length of the bioreactor are 8 L and 24 h, respectively.
