Abstract

A bioaugmented extended aeration reactor was used for the treatment of latex concentrate effluent with an average chemical oxygen demand (COD) of 10 240 mg/l. Biokinetic parameters were determined and they were as follows: half velocity constant 285.3 mg/l; maximum substrate utilisation rate 9.29 day-1; yield coefficient 0.0225 mg volatile suspended solids produced/mg substrate consumed; endogenous decay coefficient 0.0122 day-1 and maximum specific growth rate 0.21 day-1. A maximum of 96.9 COD removal was observed at a F/M ratio of 1.0 day-1.
