| Abstract | Waste stabilization ponds (WSP) may be affected by toxic compounds which
inhibit bacterial activity and reduce the rate of biodegradation of organic matter.
Research was conducted to evaluate the toxic effects of phenol in the laboratory-scale
and pilot-scale WSP.
The laboratory-scale WSP System I units, consisting of facultative pond l,
facultative pond 2 and maturation pond in series, were fed with different influent
phenol concent r ations of 300, 500, 600 and 700 mg/L, but the same organic loading
rate of 1000 kg COD/(ha.d) to the facultati ve pond 1. System II consisting of
facultative pond 2 and maturation pond in series were fed with t h e same waste
as System I, but the organic loading rate of 250 l |
