Sulfide production during anaerobic lagoon treatment of tapioca wastewater
AbstractLaboratory-scale experiments on anaerobic lagoon treatment of tapioca wastewater were conducted under ambient, tropical conditions. The objectives of this study were to investigate factors that affect hydrogen sulfide production and to propose means to control the formation of hydrogen sulfide in lagoon effluents. The concentrations of sulfides were found to increase with increasing organic loading from 2.76 to 5.77 kg COD/m3.d, decreasing hydraulic retention time; and increasing pH from 3 to 7. The maximum total sulfide concentration of 18.8 mg/L occurred at the organic loading of 5.77 kg COD/ m3.d and neutral pH. the maximum H2S concentration was calculated to be 13.3 mg/L which occurred in the laggoon operated at an organic loading of 5.77 kg COD/m3.d and a pH of 5. The control of odour problems due to the H2S formation should be possible by raising pH of the lagoon water to be more than 8 or operating the lagoon at low organic loadings.
