ResumoA baixa eficiência dos reatores UASB, no que se refere às remoções de nutrientes, patogênicos e matéria orgânica, faz com que seja necessário o pós-tratamento, a fim de melhorar a qualidade do efluente gerado. Assim sendo, investigou-se nesse estudo a utilização da microfiltração associada à desinfecção por radiação ultravioleta como alternativa ao tratamento avançado de esgotos. Para isso, foram coletadas amostras de efluente de reator UASB a fim de realizar ensaios em sistema piloto de microfiltração, utilizando-se em uma das amostras a pré-coagulação com tanino vegetal. Keywords: Membrane Filtration, Post-sewage Treatment, UV Radiation.The low efficiency of UASB bioreactors, regarding the removal of nutrient, organic matter and pathogens, makes it necessary to carry out a post treatment, in order to improve the quality of the effluent. Accordingly, this research has examined the use of microfiltration associated to the disinfection by the ultraviolet radiation, as an option to this post treatment. For so, were collected samples of UASB reactors' effluent, in order to carry out some tests on a pilot microfiltration system, using in one of the samples pre-coagulation with vegetable tannin. After, all the microfiltrated samples were inserted in a UV reactor, applying different radiation doses, ranging from 43.8 to 194.9 mWs.cm -2, to simulate the disinfection. The system used showed good results in terms of turbidity removal, apparent color, true color, phosphorus, nitrogen, total solids, total suspended solids and COD, reaching in the best operating condition, the following values: 1.90 uT, 15 uC, 10 uC, 0.94 mg/L, 17.64 mg/L, 123 mg/L, 0 mg/L and 10 mg/L, respectively, which represent the following removal percentages: 91.3%, 93.6%, 82.0%, 55.1%, 26.3%, 35% and 86.1%. The inactivation obtained for E. coli, total coliforms, colifagos and Clostridium perfrigens was satisfactory, achieving a higher inactivation than the detection limit of the method used, when submitted to the highests tested radiation doses. The average permeate flux ranged from 55.2 to 133.6 L.m
