Résumé : |
Oils are usually applied as aqueous emulsions in the fatliquoring process and they influence the physical characteristics of leather, such as tensile strength, extensibility, wetting properties, water-proofness and permeability to water vapour and air. During soybean oil processing, phospholipids are recovered from the degumming process to produce lecithin. The sulfonated phospholipids exhibit good hydrophilic properties, emulsifying properties and good permeability. They are therefore used in the tanneries as semi-synthetic fatliquor. Exhaustion of fatliquor was about 85 to 90% and the remaining was discharged in to the process water as wastewater. Grease traps fail to retain dissolved and emulsified fats efficiently, allowing them to enter the water treatment system. These lipids may then interfere with aerobic biological wastewater treatment processes by reducing oxygen transfer rates. The aim of the present study was to assess the rate of biodegradability of lecithin-based fatliquor containing wastewater generated from tanneries at various food to microbial (f/m) ratios of 0.35, 0.25 and 0.15 in aerobic batch reactors. Optimization of the f/m ratio and residence time was investigated in detail and the results established that a f/m ratio of 0.15 with residence time of 48 hours is needed for obtaining maximum biodegradation. Soluble Biochemical Oxygen Demand (SBOD) and Soluble Chemical Oxygen Demand (SCOD) removal efficiencies were 95.55% and 86.21%, which resulted in 28 and 240 mg/L in the treated effluent. It was evident from FT-IR and ESI-MS analysis that the phospholipids are degraded efficiently in the batch reactor. |
