Integrated Ozone and Anoxic-Aerobic Activated Sludge Reactor for Endek (Balinese Textile) Wastewater Treatment

Abstract

The endek industry produces low-biodegradable wastewater, which is very difficult to treat using the biological methods. For this reason, this study was aimed at improving the quality of wastewater for endek textile wastewater using the combination of ozone oxidation process as pretreatment and anoxic-aerobic activated sludge. The ozone reactor volume amounted to 3L and the applied ozone dose equaled 0.05 mg/minute. The BOD/COD of endek wastewater increased to 0.38 after ozone treatment and the application of anoxic-aerobic activated sludge treatment. The anoxic-aerobic experiments were conducted in batch process and consisted of activated sludge. Conventional anoxic-aerobic treatment can reach color and COD removal of 30% and 32%, respectively, without pre-treatment. The ozone pretreatment can increase color and COD removal up to 76.6% and 86.9%, respectively. On the basis of the effluent standards of textile wastewater quality, COD, BOD 5 , and total ammonia (NH 3-N) parameters have met the quality standards.

Impact of Salinity on Stabilized Leachate Treatment from Ozonation Process

“…Furthermore, the effect of ozonation is visible at the salinity of 0.4 ppt, and the biodegradability is improved from 0.12 to 0.358. These results indicate that ozonation technology can destruct macromolecular organics into lower molecular weight substances [22,23] Consequently, the ozonation process yielded a more favorable effluent for biological treatment with a BOD5/COD ratio of more than 0.3 [24].…”

“…Advanced treatment with ozone/persulfate oxidation lowered pH from herbal decoction pieces wastewater and improved biodegradability from 0.16 to 0.55 [25]. Another study with ozone/hydrogen peroxide also enhanced the biodegradability of textile wastewater [22,23] and color removal [26], as well as the efficiency of biological wastewater treatment [27]. Figure 6 shows that there is a close relationship between salinity and biodegradability values.…”
