摘要
A simulated wastewater, which contains eight metal cutting fluids, was treated using three biological schemes: anaerobic, anaerobic followed by aerobic and aerobic. Sludge ages for the biological schemes were sufficiently long to produce the effluents in which the residual organics were practically nonbiodegradable. Adsorption isotherms, obtained using the wastewater and the three biologically treated effluents, revealed that the absorption capacity of activated carbon increased substantially after the wastewater was biologically treated. This increase appeared to be due to selective, biological removal of poorly adsorbable organics, displaying a synergistic relationship between adsorption and biodegradation. The organic compositions in the anaerobic/aerobic effluent and in the aerobic effluent might be similar because the adsorption isotherms for the effluents were virtually identical. © 1990.
