Abstract EN
An aerobic fluidized biofilm process of treating oil-polluted wastewater has been studied.
A series of batch experiments were conducted and the kinetic coefficients were evaluated for efficient operation of fluidized bed bioreactor (FBBR).
It was observed that up to 1500 mg/L oil (Motor oil SAE–40) could be degraded in a FBBR.
The experiments, however, were limited to the oil concentration within a range of 1000-2600 mg/L.
Average biofilm thickness (d) under specific conditions was found to be 22 mm and average oil degradation rate of 0.053 mg oil/mg biomass/hour was measured in the FBBR.
The results also support that the increase in the concentration of oil in the treatment process reduced significantly the degradation rate of non-oil carbon.
