Abstract

Due to the high strength nature of abattoir wastewater, the accumulation of crusts on anaerobic ponds is a systemic problem in the red meat processing industry in Australia and can limit the ability to accurately obtain biogas measurements. In this study, BioWin was used to simulate chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal rates and subsequent biogas production rate based on field data from two abattoirs where crust accumulation was an issue. BioWin is a Microsoft Windows-based simulator developed by EnviroSim Associates Ltd, which has seen use in the design and optimisation of wastewater treatment plants. In assessing overall anaerobic decomposition efficiency it was hypothesised that a large percentage of influent COD was present as a surface crust which remained largely unbiodegradable. Field data effluent COD removal rates were matched to simulated rates predicted by BioWin when measured influent COD was reduced to 30% (absolute relative error of 11–14%), thus supporting the notion that a significant portion of COD is not taking part in the anaerobic digestion process. The simulation provides a preliminary assessment of pond performance in terms of COD removal rates and also subsequent biogas production rates. BioWin was able to predict approximate biogas production rates ranging between 113 to 173 m3/d and 52 m3/d for the two abattoirs investigated. Further work to validate simulation using BioWin includes obtaining actual biogas measurements and performing COD measurement of crust.
