Treatment of high-strength methanol wastewater with two-stage and two-phase anaerobic process

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

The two-stage and two-phase anaerobic process (TSTP) seeded with granular sludge is used to treat high-strength methanol wastewater. The unit of two-stage system is an external circulation anaerobic reactor (EC). Tests show that TSTP process can quickly start up within 50 days, and the maximum VFA concentration of hydrolytic acidification reactor effluent can be 14.6 mmol/L. In the biological process of methanol converted into methane, the direct production of methane from methanol is predominant. The total COD removal rate of the two-stage anaerobic process can reach over 90%.
