โœฆ Synopsis

Process condensate wastewaters from two fixed-bed gasijiers

have been treated successfully using a laboratory-scale, fixed-film, fluidized-bed bioreactor. Both dilute (1 to 2% raw wastewater) and more concentrated (50% stripped wastewater) were treated continuously for periods of one to three months. Biological activity was stable, recovery from upsets was rapid, and reaction rates were high due to the high concentration of microorganisms retained on the support particles. Removal of phenolics exceeded 99%, and removal of chemical oxygen demand was typically 75 to 85% for the 50% stripped wastewater with a hydraulic residence time in the bed of -5 to 7 h. Sludge production rates were comparable to rates in suspended growth systems.

Three Western Canadian coals were gasified with air and steam in a fluidized bed of 0.73 mm sand and coal, at atmospheric pressure and temperatures of 1023-l 175K to produce a low-calorific-value gas. One non-caking and two caking coals were tested. The effects of temperature, coal feed rate, air/co

During wastewater treatment, biofilm-coated sand particles stratified in a fluidized bed bioreactor (FBB); particles coated by thicker biofilm segregated toward the top of the bed. Stratification was so well developed that at least two co-existing regions of significantly different mean biofilm thic
