Abstract

Anaerobic degradation of the polyethylene glycol 400(PEG400) was studied. The effect of concentration was respectively assessed on the anaerobic bio-degradation of PEG400, using the organic model wastewater containing the 1.0% and 0.5% PEG400. The result showed that: the TOC(Total Organic Carbon) and COD(Chemical Oxygen Demand) removal rate of the 1.0% PEG400 was degraded more than 50% in 5-day HRT(hydraulic retention time) and by 90% in 10-day HRT(hydraulic retention time), and the total gas yield was more than 1000ml. The reaction process was in accordance with the anaerobic reaction kinetics. It achieved ideal treatment effection by anaerobic treatment of high concentration organic wastewater.
