Abstract
Performance of an anaerobic moving bed biofilm reactor (AnMBBR) was evaluated for pretreatment of
real textile desizing wastewater at organic loading rate (OLR) of 1±0.05 to 6.3±0.37 kgCOD/m3
/d. After OLR optimization, the performance of AnMBBR was evaluated for biodegradation of reactive dyes. AnMBBR was operated under a
mesophilic temperature range of 30 to 36 o
C, while the oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) and pH were in the range
of 504 to 594 (-mV) and 6.98 to 7.28, respectively. By increasing the OLR from 1±0.05 to 6.3±0.37 kgCOD/m3
/d, COD
and BOD5 removal was decreased from 84 to 39% and 89 to 49%, respectively. While the production of biogas was
increased from 0.12 to 0.83 L/L·d up to an optimum OLR of 4.9±0.43 kgCOD/m3
/d. With increase in the dye concentration in the feed, COD, BOD5, color removal and biogas production reduced from 56, 63, 70% and 0.65 L/L·d to
34, 43, 41% and 0.08 L/L·d, respectively. Based on the data obtained, a cost-benefit analysis of AnMBBR was also
investigated for the pretreatment of real textile desizing wastewater. Cost estimation of anaerobic pretreatment of textile desizing wastewater indicated a net profit of 21.09 million PKR/yr (114,000 €/yr) and a potential payback period of
2.54 years
