Wastewater coming from cheese-producing industries in Greece is high in organic matter (about 40}60 g/l Chemical Oxygen Demand, COD) since it generally contains discarded cheese-whey as well. This wastewater is rich in easily biodegradable carbohydrates and has a relatively low content in suspended

## Abstract By means of stimulusβresponse experiments with a Li^+^ tracer, a description of the fluid flow in a 30 m^3^ reactor, used for anaerobic treatment of wastewater, was derived. It appeared that of the three parts that could be distinguished in the reactor (the sludge bed. The sludge blanke
## Abstract BACKGROUND: This study considers batch treatment of saline wastewater in an upflow anaerobic packed bed reactor by salt tolerant anaerobic organisms __Halanaerobium lacusrosei__. RESULTS: The effects of initial chemical oxygen demand (COD) concentration (COD~0~ = 1880β9570 mg L^β1^), s
## Abstract **BACKGROUND:** The conventional treatment of molasses wastewater has many disadvantages including intensive energy requirements, excessive chemicals consumption and large quantities of waste generation. The microbial fuel cell (MFC) is a promising technology for power generation along
Four fluidized bed reactors were used to evaluate singleand separated-phase anaerobic treatments of a high strength wastewater. Two reactors were fed with a synthetic wastewater, containing glucose as the primary carbon source, with a COD of 1.2 x lo4 mglL while the remaining pair were fed with a wa
## Abstract **BACKGROUND:** This work is focused on the anaerobic biodegradation of wastewater from used industrial oils (UIO) recovery using a benchβscale expanded granular sludge bed reactor (EGSB) at room temperature. **RESULTS:** Biodegradability tests showed that this wastewater can be partia
