Treatment of Polyester Weight Loss Wastewater Using Strains Degrading Ethylene Glycol and Terephthalic Acid
Ethylene Glycol과 Terephthalic Acid 분해균주를 이용한 감량가공폐수처리
Abstract
Terephthalic acid and ethylene glycol resulting form the weight-reduction process of polyester make trouble in the operation of activated sludge process. Also, polyester weight loss wastewater shows high pH, high organic strength and wide variation of organic loading. Therefore, this study was conducted in order to improve treatment efficiency by activated sludge process with Pseudomonas sp degrading components of polyester weight loss wastewater. The CO
