Özet

An anaerobic packed column reactor was operated continuously at different dyestuff loading rates, (0.05-0.4 g/(1 day)) and COD loading rates (1-8 g/(1 day)) in order to determine dyestuff and COD removal kinetic constants. The system was operated at room temperature (20 +/- 1 degrees C) and at pH 7 using an immobilized anaerobic bacterial consortium called PDW. Synthetic wastewater containing textile dyestuff Reactive Red 195 was fed from the bottom of the reactor. Around 90% decolourization efficiency was obtained for dyestuff loading rates up to 0.15 g/(1 day). COD removal efficiency was obtained between 5 and 35% for the applied loads. Modified Stover-Kincannon model was applied to the experimental data. Saturation value constant and maximum utilization rate constant of Stover-Kincannon model for dyestuff and COD were determined as K-B = 17.8 g/(1 day), U-max = 19.5 g/(1 day) and K-B = 37.9 g COD/(1 day), U-max = 12.9 g COD/(1 day), respectively. The predicted effluent dyestuff and COD concentrations were calculated using the constants and it was found that they are in good agreement with the observed ones. (c) 2004 Elsevier Ltd.
