Abstract
The treatment characteristics of leachate produced from pretreatment facilities like composting and feeding were investigated in a mesophilic anaerobic treatment. Experiments were performed in two phase which were acidification and methane fermentation. The acidification step was optimized for OLR from 1 to $4.5kg\;COD/kg\;VS{\cdot}day$ without adding NaOH. As experiment dates became longer, the solubilization ratio of particles increased up to 30% over 70 days. TVA was generated up to maximum 9,970mg HAc/L at OLR of $2kg\;COD/kg\;VS{\cdot}day$. But TVA was generated to minimum 6,519mg HAc/L at OLR of $4.5kg\;COD/kg\;VS{\cdot}day$. The acidification ratio was analyzed from 10.9% to 3.8% at OLR of $2kg\;COD/kg\;VS{\cdot}day$ and $4.5kg\;COD/kg\;VS{\cdot}day$ respectively. After 55 days, salt contents in the acid fermenter were accumulated and stabilized at the concentration of 3,150mg/L. Sodium ion($Na^+$) concentration was stabilized at 1,300mg/L. At methane fermentation step, biogas was generated up to 750ml and 937.5ml at the feeding volume of 20ml and 25ml respectively for acid fermented liquid during 25 days. About 80% of total biogas was generated during early 15 days and 95% were generated during 18 days respectively. After 25 days of the BMP test, acetic acid was removed approximately 97% and 98%, in case of those two experimental conditions.
