Effects of detergent shock loads on anaerobic granular sludge morphology and methanogenic activity

Two shock loads of a detergent (shock 1 with 0.15 gCOD/L during 56 h, and shock 2 with 0.30 gCOD/L during 222 h) were applied in a lab-scale EGSB reactor with 1.5 gCOD/L of ethanol. Quantitative image analysis and methanogenic activity measurements were used to characterize the surfactant effects. T...
