Abstrakt: The bio-degumming method focused research interest on green degumming technology in the textile sector, addressing environmental pollution, water usage and energy consumption caused by chemical degumming methods while enhancing fiber quality. The application of recent developments in the chemical degumming method of fiber remains a challenge for environmental protection. The novel spiral symmetry stream anaerobic bioreactor was employed in a system that integrates the ramie degumming process and reduces wastewater generation. This study analyzed the effect of liquor ratios on the water quality indicators, fiber quality and microbial community composition. After this study, the effluent chemical oxygen demand concentration, pH and ammonia nitrogen were 264.2 ± 114.2, 7.2 ± 0.1 and 7.4 ± 4.8 mg/L, respectively. This shows a mean chemical oxygen demand removal rate of 55.7 ± 11.8%, which is over 79% higher than previous bio-degumming methods. The fiber quality met the ramie fine dry hemp standard requirements. The high-throughput sequencing results revealed that the microbial community adapted to this process. The relative abundance of dominant microbes (Bacteroidetes and Methanosaeta), which perform biodegradation and methane production, was present. This study demonstrates a promising green degumming technology and eco-friendly concept for the textile industry. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
