Influence of organic loading on the performance and microbial community structure of an anaerobic stage reactor treating pharmaceutical wastewater

An unique up-flow anaerobic stage reactor (UASR) treating pharmaceutical wastewater at various organic loading rate (OLR) was investigated and showed efficient substrate removal at low OLRs (0.43-1.86kg CODm-3d-1) by promoting efficient chemical oxygen demand (COD) reduction (70-75%). However, incre...
