Abstract

The treatment of waste water emerging from industries has always proved to be difficult task for disposal because of its typical characteristics. The careless discharge of industrial effluent and sewage in land surface waters has created environmental hazards. To meet the standards specified by the water pollution control authorities, of waste-water if treated properly and efficiently it could be a source of energy. Hence the innovative and alternative technology for the treatment of industrial wastes has become main challenge for environmental prevention and protection of public health. The UAPBR is a recent and advanced technique for waste water treatment. It proves to be very useful for the dilute wastes containing significant amount of suspended solids. In present work an attempt has been made to study the performance, evaluation of UAPBR for the treatment of dairy waste (whey).
