Sulphate is a common constituent of industrial or domestic effluent and sometimes presents in high concentration. In anaerobic treatment, the reduction of sulphate to sulphide by sulphate reducing bacteria (SRB) leads to a number of problems. One of the major problems is low methane production. In o...
