Excerpt

The expanded granular sludge bed (EGSB) team was created to work within the wastewater subteam to design and run new anaerobic reactors. New designs are being drafted to increase upflow velocity and flow rates of influent, create a fluidized bed, decrease hydraulic retention time, and increase granular retention. Initial literature review was conducted on UASBs and expanded granular sludge bed (EGSB) reactors to inform reactor design. Calculations are being done to determine optimal influent upflow velocity, influent flow rate, reactor dimensions, and number of reactors. Designs will be finalized and reactors will be constructed in upcoming weeks.
