Anaerobic Tower

Overview

Anaerobic tower is a bioreactor that utilizes anaerobic bacteria for anaerobic reactions. Its basic principle is to convert organic matter in wastewater into methane and carbon dioxide under anaerobic conditions through the metabolic action of anaerobic bacteria. This process not only involves chemical reactions, but also involves the biological metabolism of microorganisms. Anaerobic bacteria convert organic matter into elemental molecules through a series of metabolic pathways and release energy, thereby achieving wastewater treatment.

Product Description

Main functions:
It is the process of degrading organic matter in organic wastewater into inorganic substances through microbial metabolic pathways, while promoting the growth and reproduction of microorganisms, forming a virtuous cycle. In the anaerobic tower, wastewater reacts with anaerobic microorganisms through the packing layer, degrading organic matter and producing some organic acids, oxidation-reduction substances, and gases. These metabolites further produce some reducing chemicals through the action of some microorganisms under anaerobic conditions. 


Application scope:

Anaerobic towers have a wide range of applications in the field of wastewater treatment, often used to treat high concentration COD wastewater, such as organic wastewater from industries such as brewing, sugar making, and papermaking. These wastewater have complex properties and high chemical oxygen demand, making it difficult to treat them through traditional physical and chemical methods. Anaerobic reactions can effectively degrade these organic wastewater and recover energy, such as biogas.
In addition, the operating cost of anaerobic towers is relatively low because they do not require oxygen to decompose organic matter and have lower energy consumption. Meanwhile, anaerobic treatment can reduce the use of chemicals and improve treatment efficiency.
