Summary: | The present study investigates the performance of a new configuration laboratory-scale bioreactor comprising of two regimes (anaerobic & aerobic) in one reactor with physical separation and it is known as integrated anaerobic/aerobic sequencing batch reactor (IAASBR). The IAASBR is designed for treating high-strength wastewater such as poultry slaughterhouse wastewater (PSW) along with the simultaneous removal of organic carbon and ammoniacal nitrogen (NH3-N). The IAASBR exhibits that the average removal efficiency of total COD (TCOD), soluble COD (SCOD), NH3-N, fat, oil & grease (FOG), and total suspended solids (TSS) were (97%���2%), (95%���3%), (98%���1.3%), (90%���11%), and (96%���3%) respectively. The laboratory comparison test revealed that IAASBR configuration has enhanced the sludge settle-ability for aerobic SBR more than the conventional SBR or settling tank. Furthermore, IAASBR could tolerate the shock loading occurrence, handle organic loading rate (OLR) up to 4.5�kg�(TCOD)�m−3�d−1and produce a high-quality effluent complying with Malaysian standards of industrial's effluents. � 2016 Elsevier B.V. |
