OSTI ID:6522381
Anaerobic fluidized-bed GAC reactors have been proven successful for the treatment of biologically inhibiting wastewaters such as coal conversion wastewaters. However, in treating such wastewaters which contain compounds that not only resist biodegradation but also inhibit the degradation of other compounds, adsorption on granular activated carbon (GAC) represents a viable strategy for the removal of these inhibitory compounds. The cost of the GAC replacement represents a major operating cost of the system. The hydraulic detention time and the associated carbon inventory represent the single most important capital cost parameter. The objectives of this research are to determine, using experimental and modeling strategies, the effects of hydraulic detention time and the schedule of GAC replacement on the performance of fluidized bed GAC anaerobic reactors during the treatment of coal conversion wastewater. 1 ref., 2 figs.
