State Key Laboratory of Environmental Aquatic Chemistry Research Center for Eco-Environmental Sciences Chinese Academy of Sciences Beijing China. Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering Graduate School of Engineering Tohoku University Sendai Miyagi Japan Abstract In this study anaerobic biodegradability of high strength pharmaceutical wastewater from six main departments in a pharmaceutical manufacturer was firstly evaluated by a series of batch experiments. Based on the experimental data two stage-uasbs were applied to treat the wastewater containing effluent from all manufacturing departments. The influence of organic loading rate OLR from initial 1. 0 g COD / L d to maximum 1. 0 g COD / L d on the performance of reactor was investigated through step-decreasing HRT. Influent COD was diluted to mg /L with the adjustment of ph to 6. 8 ~ Total COD removal efficiency of 73. 5% with the effluent COD of 600 mg /L was noticed at OLR of 6. 0 g COD / L d maximum OLR for practical engineering application. Satisfactory organic compound removal efficiency during the long term run indicted the feasibility of two-stage UASBs for treatment of this kind of pharmaceutical wastewater effluent.
