Abstract:
:Two lab-scale anaerobic hybrid reactors (AHR) were operated to investigate the effect of recirculated biogas on the development of biomass on supporting media during the start-up. The reactor comprised of two distinct zones; sludge bed on the bottom and packed bed using nylon fiber as the media on the upper half of the reactor. Both reactors were continuously fed with cassava starch wastewater. The organic loading rate (OLR) was increased from 0.3 to 5.5 g COD/L/day by gradually decreasing the hydraulic retention time (HRT) from 37 to 3.5 days in two months. The biogas at 2.6 L/L/day was recirculated merely in the first month of the operation in order to allow the attached biomass to grow according to the organic matters present in the reactor at the final stage of the start up. Chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal efficiency of over 80% was achieved throughout the study. The result demonstrated a better COD removal efficiency for the reactor with biogas recirculation, especially at low HRTs. The amounts of biomass accumulated on the media in both reactors were slightly different with 11.9 gVSS found on the one with biogas recirculation compared to 9.8 gVSS on the other. In addition, 16.3% increase of the sludge bed was achieved with biogas recirculation as opposed to 9% in the control one. The attached biomass activity test indicated a greater amount and more favorable ratio of the methanogenic bacterial group on the media with the recirculation correlating well to a relatively higher methane content in biogas. As a result, the recirculation of biogas has a potential of improving the characteristics of the AHR especially in terms of biomass accumulation.
