Abstract:

The treatment of the refined soybean oil wastewater by Trichosporon fermentans was optimized by orthogonal test in a 5 L stirred reactor. By the range analysis, the optimal conditions for biological treatment of refined soybean oil wastewater were temperature of 28 ℃, rotating speed of 300 r/min, air intake of 2 L/min, and inoculation amount of 10%. After 36 h operation under these conditions, the removals of COD and oil content of the refined soybean oil wastewater were 97.31% and 89.09%, and the biomass and lipid content reached 9.27 g/L and 51.9%, respectively. The Monod, Tessier, and Moser models were applied to study the biomass growth of Trichosporon fermentans and the pollutant degradation of the refined soybean oil wastewater, and it was found that the Tessier model was more suitable for studying the growth of microorganisms than those of the Monod and Moser models. The kinetic equations for the biomass growth of Trichosporon fermentans were established, and the corresponding parameters were obtained and applied to assess the design and operation of a bioreactor for the treatment of oily wastewater.
