Abstract

Three Anaerobic Baffled Reactors (ABRs) are used to evaluate the extent of scale effects of cyanide inhibition of cassava wastewater treatment. The reactors (physical models) have aspect ratios of (53:16:30; 4:1:1; 10:3:6).

Keywords

Anaerobic, Treatment, Cassava Wastewater, Monod model and Kincannon model
