Treatment of blue crab processing wastewater using Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket (UASB) and air stripping technologies

Crab cooker wastewater contains high concentrations of chemical oxygen demand (COD), total suspended solids (TSS), and total Kjeldahl nitrogen (TKN). Biological treatment of the wastewater releases high concentrations of ammonia. In this study, UASB treatment of crab cooker wastewater was evaluated,...
