“…The VFA concentrations were very low, which confirms the very good operation. Similar results of the treatment of brewery slurry were reported in our previous research (21) and of the treatment of brewery wastewater by other authors (6). By increasing the OLR of the treated yeast/wastewater mixtures from 10 to 12 % (by volume), the COD degradation was substantially lower with tCOD removal of below 80 % and dCOD eff / tCOD inf of below 88 %.…”

“…Usually, this brewing wastewater is treated in anaerobic systems using granular biomass (2). Reactors used for these treatments are up-flow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) systems (3,4) (6). However, flow-through UASB reactors are conventionally high-load reactors and have significant problems when degrading high-solid substrates (7), which is most certainly the case when adding yeast to the wastewater.…”

SummaryRenewable energy sources are becoming increasingly important in the beverage and food industries. In the brewing industry, a significant percentage of the used raw materials finishes the process as secondary resource or waste. The research on the anaerobic digestion of brewer's yeast has been scarce until recent years. One of the reasons for this is its use as a secondary resource in the food industry and as cattle feed. Additionally, market value of brewer's yeast is higher than its energy value. Due to the increase of energy prices, brewer's yeast has become of interest as energy substrate despite its difficult degradability in anaerobic conditions. The anaerobic co-digestion of brewer's yeast and anaerobically treated brewery wastewater was studied using a pilot-scale anaerobic sequencing batch reactor (ASBR) seeded with granular biomass. The experiments showed very good and stable operation with an organic loading rate of up to 8.0 kg/(m 3 ·day), and with a maximum achieved organic loading rate of 13.6 kg/(m 3 ·day) in a single cycle. A specific biogas productivity of over 0.430 m 3 /kg of the total chemical oxygen demand (COD) inserted, and total COD removal efficiencies of over 90 % were achieved. This study suggests that the brewer's yeast can be successfully digested in an ASBR without adverse effects on the biogas production from brewer's yeast/wastewater mixtures of up to 8 % (by volume). By using the brewer's yeast in the ASBR process, the biogas production from brewery wastewater could be increased by 50 %.

Handling and Treatment of Poultry Hatchery Waste: A Review

2011

A literature review was undertaken to identify methods being used to handle and treat hatchery waste. Hatchery waste can be separated into solid waste and liquid waste by centrifuging or by using screens. Potential methods for treating hatchery waste on site include use of a furnace to heat the waste to produce steam to run a turbine generator or to use an in line composter to stabilise the waste. There is also potential to use anaerobic digestion at hatcheries to produce methane and fertilisers. Hatcheries disposing wastewater into lagoons could establish a series of ponds where algae, zooplankton and fish utilise the nutrients using integrated aquaculture which cleans the water making it more suitable for irrigation. The ideal system to establish in a hatchery would be to incorporate separation and handling equipment to separate waste into its various components for further treatment. This would save disposal costs, produce biogas to reduce power costs at plants and produce a range of value added products. However the scale of operations at many hatcheries is too small and development of treatment systems may not be viable.

“…facilitates the reduction of the amount of organic coagulant and inert clay needed depending on the particle size. While many researchers have reported different treatment methods for brewery wastewater (Parawira et al, 2005;Fillaudeau et al, 2006;Wang et al, 2007;Shao et al, 2008;Mathuriya and Sharma, 2010;Simate, 2015), there is scanty of information on the treatment of brewery wastewater using Mg-sericite flocculants. Therefore, the objective of this study is to provide a suitable method for the efficient treatment of brewery wastewater.…”
