Thermophilic anaerobic fluidised bed reactors (AFBRs) were shown to achieve inferior COD removal efficiencies in comparison to mesophilic AFBRs treating a synthetic meat waste. Organic removal efficiencies of 45.6–83.7% were observed for mesophilic reactors over a range of COD loadings between 0.5 ‐ 32 kg m‐3 d‐1, while removal efficiencies of the thermophilic reactors were between 33.1–62% over the same range. The optimum hydraulic retention time (HRT) was found to lie within the range of 6–13 h at a COD loading of 4.6 kg m‐3 d‐1. There appeared to be little difference between the optimum HRT for thermophilic and mesophilic reactors. |
