## Abstract Low strength wastewaters (LSWs) are difficult to degrade efficiently in the upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactor. The possible reasons for poor treatment of LSWs in UASB are: (i) low mixing due to low biogas production (ii) frequent biomass washout at higher hydraulic loading
The selection of a suitable sludge which will be the inoculum of the reactor is the ®rst step in the start-up procedure of an anaerobic reactor. The sludge selected (inoculum) for this study was obtained from a UASB (Up-¯ow Anaerobic Sludge Bed) reactor used for the treatment of alcohol industry was
