AbstractAn entrapped mixed microbial cell was prepared as possible treatment of synthetic chromium wastewater. Cellulose Triacetate (mono carrier) was used for entrapping the mixed microbial cells. This type of carrier was tested with synthetic wastewater with 300 mg/L COD and chromium at concentrations of O mg/L, 2 mg/L, 5 mg/L and 10 mg/L. The system was operated under aerobic conditions. The Mono carrier could achieve a s oluble COD removal efficiency of above 90% with a detention time of 3 hours. The average Cr removal in this study was 75% in 2 mg/L Cr feed- influent, 63% in 5 mg/L Cr feed- influent and 48% in 10 mg/L Cr feed-influent.
