TREATMENT OF DAIRY WASTEWATER BY EXPANDED GRANULAR SLUDGE BED (EGSB)REACTOR

Environment management

Dairy industry is one of the major industries causing water pollution. In India, dairy industry generates about 6-10 L wastewater/L of milk processed depending upon the process employed and product manufactured. Considering the increased milk demand by 2020 A.D., the milk based food industries in India is expected to grow rapidly and have the waste generation and related environmental problems are also assumed increased importance. Poorly treated wastewater with high levels of pollutants caused by poor design, operation or treatment systems creates major environmental problems when discharged to surface water or land. Considering the above stated implications an attempt has been made in the present project to evaluate one of the WWTP for dairy waste. the treatment of dairy wastewater by UASB reactor worldwide spread but some problem occurring for the low strength wastewater thus, Here we provide another option in place of UASB reactor was EGSB reactor.
