Biotechnology of anaerobic digestion enhanced by iron-reducing bacteria
The aim of the research project was to study and optimize anaerobic treatment of organic and sulfate-containing wastewater under different dosage of iron-containing compounds. Anaerobic sludge of municipal wastewater treatment plant can be used for enrichment culture of iron-reducing bacteria (IRB)...

School of Civil and Environmental Engineering DRNTU::Engineering::Environmental engineering::Water treatment The aim of the research project was to study and optimize anaerobic treatment of organic and sulfate-containing wastewater under different dosage of iron-containing compounds. Anaerobic sludge of municipal wastewater treatment plant can be used for enrichment culture of iron-reducing bacteria (IRB) with maximum iron reduction rate 3.5 mg/l h for ferrihydrate and 0.75 mg/l h for iron-containing clay. Iron-containing clay, iron hydroxide, and ferric pyrophosphate were studied as the sources of Fe (III) for iron-reducing bacteria. Best source for iron reduction was dissolved ferric pyrophosphate, but most reasonable source for wastewater treatment can be iron hydroxide. Iron- reducing activity of isolated pure cultures was just 60 to 70% of the activity of related enrichment cultures. 2008-09-17T10:31:00Z 2008-09-17T10:31:00Z 2003 2003 Research Report http://hdl.handle.net/10356/5166 Nanyang Technological University application/pdf |
