“…COD removal close to 90%, at a high OLR of 31 kg COD/(m 3 day) and HRT of 1.7 h and methane production with an average value of 0.32 L CH 4 /g COD removed was obtained for cheese production wastewater (influent COD 2.05 g/L) using a laboratory scale UASB reactor under stable operating conditions [85]. Increase of OLR of about 30%, [higher than 45 kg COD/(m 3 day)] had as a result a reduction of the COD removal rate by 11%-26%.…”

Abstract:Cheese whey utilization is of major concern nowadays. Its high organic matter content, in combination with the high volumes produced and limited treatment options make cheese whey a serious environmental problem. However, the potential production of biogas (methane), hydrogen or other marketable products with a simultaneous high COD reduction through appropriate treatment proves that cheese whey must be considered as an energy resource rather than a pollutant. The presence of biodegradable components in the cheese whey coupled with the advantages of anaerobic digestion processes over other treatment methods makes anaerobic digestion an attractive and suitable treatment option. This paper intends to review the most representative applications of anaerobic treatment of cheese whey currently being exploited and under research. Moreover, an effort has been made to categorize the common characteristics of the various research efforts and find a comparative basis, as far as their results are concerned. In addition, a number of dairy industries already using such anaerobic digestion systems are presented.

“…Cheese effl uents are degraded in UASB reactors in laboratory tests and on an industrial scale. A laboratory-scale UASB reactor utilising a cheese factory effl uent eliminates around 90 % of effl uents at an OLR, expressed as COD, of 31 g/(L·day) (91). Organic loads, expressed as COD, over 45 g/(L·day) perform worse (70-80 % only).…”

SummaryThe milk processing industry is one of the world's staple industries, thus the treatment possibilities of dairy effl uents have been att racting more and more att ention. The purpose of the paper is to review contemporary research on dairy wastewater. The origin, categories, as well as liquid by-products and general indicators of real dairy wastewater are described. Diff erent procedures applied for dairy wastewater management are summarised. Att ention is focused on in-factory treatment technologies with the emphasis on biological processes. Aerobic and anaerobic methods with both their advantages and disadvantages are discussed in detail. Consecutive anaerobic and aerobic systems are analysed, too. Finally, future research niches are identifi ed.
