Abstract/Summary:
The effect of organic loading rates and the solids residence time (SRT) on the aerobic treatment of phenol and o-cresol bearing wastewater by sequencing batch reactors (SBRs) was investigated. SBRs were utilized to treat phenol and o-cresol, aerobically at a hydraulic retention time (HRT) of one day and varying SRTs. The reactors achieved over 99.5% removal of phenol and o-cresol at toxicant loading in the ranges of 100-800 kg phenol/m...
