This treatment system is most widely applied for organic wastes / industrial wastes from distillery, starch, paper & pulp, dairy, tannery pharmaceuticals and other food processing industries
The Up-flow Anaerobic Sludge Bio- Digester (UASB) process is in operation for many years and has successfully demonstrated that waste water with high COD & BOD values can be treated with high efficiencies (upto 96%).
‘The waste water enters at the distribution network placed at the bottom of the Bio digester, this ensures the proper intermingling of the effluent with bacteria. The Biogas produced by the bacteria is in the form of small tiny bubbles rises upward through the bacterial bed. Methane rich Biogas is produced due to bio de-gradable property of the effluent which replaces fossil fuels.
