Treatability study of a seafood-processing wastewater.

The unique characteristics of seafood-processing wastewater require a treatability study be performed. Wastewater from seafood-processing contains high concentrations of nitrogen and suspended solids along with large volumes of wastewater. This treatability study was undertaken using a 10 L per day, bench-scale, modified Ludzack-Ettinger (MLE) process that was designed, constructed, and operated for approximately eight (8) months.
