Bisphenol-A (BPA) biodegradation was studied in a membrane bioreactor under aerobic conditions. The effects of the initial BPA concentration and initial chemical oxygen demand (COD) concentration on BPA biodegradation were investigated. The degradation process followed a first-order kinetic (more than 98% of BPA was removed) with a kinetic rate constant of 1.134 h(-1) using an initial BPA concentration of 1.0 mg L(-1). The kinetic rate constant decreased to 0.611 h(-1) when the initial BPA concentration increased to 5.0 mg L(-1). The initial COD concentration (400 and 2,000 mg L(-1)) did not affect the biodegradation kinetic of BPA.
双酚 A (BPA) 在有氧条件下的膜生物反应器中进行了生物降解研究。考察了初始 BPA 浓度和初始化学需氧量 (COD) 浓度对 BPA 生物降解的影响。在初始 BPA 浓度为 1.0 mg L(-1) 时,降解过程遵循一级动力学(去除率超过 98%),动力学速率常数为 1.134 h(-1)。当初始 BPA 浓度增加到 5.0 mg L(-1) 时,动力学速率常数降低至 0.611 h(-1)。初始 COD 浓度(400 和 2,000 mg L(-1)) 不影响 BPA 的生物降解动力学。
