In this study, the performance of a conventional anaerobic baffled reactor (ABR) and a novel configuration of hybrid ABR for the treatment of thin stillage was evaluated. The hybrid ABR achieved the chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal, sulfate removal and methane yield of 97-94%, 94-97% and 294-310 mL CH g COD, respectively at organic loading rate (OLR) of 1-3.5 kg COD m d. On the other hand, the value of COD and sulfate removal and methane yield for the conventional ABR were 75-94%, 67-76% and 140-240 mL CH g COD, respectively at OLR range of 1.1-1.8 kg COD m d. The enhanced performance and robustness of the novel ABR was demonstrated to be the result of incorporation of solid/liquid/gas separators into the configuration of the conventional ABR, leading to reduced biomass washout, higher solid retention time and significantly improved phase separation.
在本研究中,评估了传统厌氧折流板反应器(ABR)和新型混合ABR处理稀酒糟的性能。在有机负荷率(OLR)为1-3.5 kg COD/m³·d时,混合ABR的化学需氧量(COD)去除率、硫酸盐去除率和甲烷产率分别达到97-94%、94-97%和294-310 mL CH₄/g COD。另一方面,在OLR范围为1.1-1.8 kg COD/m³·d时,传统ABR的COD和硫酸盐去除率以及甲烷产率分别为75-94%、67-76%和140-240 mL CH₄/g COD。新型ABR性能的增强和稳定性被证明是由于在传统ABR结构中加入了固/液/气分离器,从而减少了生物质流失,提高了固体停留时间,并显著改善了相分离。
