Abstract
A pilot-plant study was conducted to determine the feasibility of high rate alga pond (HRAP) in the treatment of anaerobically digested rubber effluent. The results showed that the hydraulic retention time of six days is adequate to satisfactorily treat the rubber effluent. A design model for the system based on completely-mixed flow regime was found to be statistically better than that based on plug-flow condition. Considering the HRAP to exhibit completely-mixed flow regime first order total nitrogen removal rate coefficient of 0.339 day-1 was obtained. Comparing the nitrogen removal rate of the HRAP with that of a facultative pond the land area for the HRAP was estimated to be 60 smaller than that of the facultative pond.
