TitleThe Self-Forming Dynamic Membrane BioReactor (SFD MBR) as a suitable technology for agro-industrial wastewater treatment
AbstractTwo bench-scale Self-Forming Dynamic Membrane BioReactors (SFD MBR), equipped with 50 ?m nylon meshes were set up and operated under aerobic conditions in order to treat canning and winery wastewaters. The results showed different behaviors of the two systems, confirming the strong dependence of SFD MBR performance on the type of biomass and, in turn, on the type of stream being treated. Both plants achieved good results in terms of effluent quality, demonstrating the suitability of the proposed technology. Median values of effluent turbidity were 2.7 and 15.4 NTU (Nephelometric Turbidity Units) in the reactors fed with canning wastewater and winery wastewater, respectively. The removal of organic matter (as COD, Chemical Oxygen Demand) was consistently above 90 %, although the retention of suspended solids was variable and somewhat dependent on operating conditions and feed composition. The activated sludge characteristics were observed to affect filtration performance and in particular the capillary suction time (CST) was a possible indicator of efficiency, with a threshold value of 11 s above which filtration performance decreased. This parameter is proposed as an early warning tool for changes in the filtration performance of an SFD MBR, both for effluent quality and cleaning requirements.
