Objectives

The Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket (UASB) is one of the most used configuration Interesting to apply at low temperature anaerobic digestion, higher biomass concentration Improve the subsequent filtration step due to low SS in the clarified effluent

Winery wastewater treatment at room temperature (20 ᵒC)

  • UASB without membrane
  • UASB-MBR

Volume = 1.5 L HRT = 16 h H/D = 3 MLSS = 30-40 g/L Upflow velocity = 1 m/h

Microbial population (FISH)

Methanosaeta was the main methanogen

Methanosaeta spp. Archaea Bacteria

Although VFA were present in the effluent, Methanosarcina spp. was not detected Granules protect methanogens so VFA concentration may be lower in the inner layers

 CSTR-MBR and UASB-MBR were successfully treating winery wastewater at low

  • temperatures. (COD removal: 71% CSTR-MBR at 15 °C, 80% CSTR-MBR at 25 °C, 92%

UASB-MBR at 22 °C)  Both reactors showed acclimation to the typical seasonal variability of the winery wastewater (low load and low temperature in winter and high load and relatively high temperature in summer).  Due to the VFA accumulation and the dissolved methane, a post-treatment of the effluent would be necessary to meet the legislation. On the other hand, after that post-treatment, the solids-free effluent would be appropriate for a potential reuse.  Higher degree of fouling compared with mesophilic AnMBR was observed. This fouling level was similar in both CSTR-MBR and UASB-MBR.  The microbial population in the CSTR-MBR shifted from Methanosaeta spp. to Methanosarcina spp. because the high VFA concentration favoured the development

  • f acetotrophic methanogens with higher growth rate under high acetate

concentration.
