Waste Derived Biocomposite for Simultaneous Biosorption of Organic Matter and Nutrients from Green Straw Biorefinery Effluent in Continuous Mode Activated Sludge Systems
The conventional disposal of green straws through burning can be eliminated in a biorefinery that converts them into a range of sustainable commercial products. However, this leads to the generation of green straw biorefinery effluent (GSBE). Green straw biorefineries discharge wastewater into the e...

The conventional disposal of green straws through burning can be eliminated in a biorefinery that converts them into a range of sustainable commercial products. However, this leads to the generation of green straw biorefinery effluent (GSBE). Green straw biorefineries discharge wastewater into the ecosystem that contains high concentrations of COD and NH4+?N. It is one of the most notable sources of visual pollution and disruption of aquatic life as well as public health that requires treatment prior to discharge. To improve the GSBE quality for environmental sustainability, the attainment of sustainable development goals 6, 9, and 14, �clean water and sanitation�, �inorganic and organic waste utilization for added values from material�, and �life below water� is very important. Therefore, the effectiveness of the continuous mode activated sludge (CMAS) system and the biocomposite-based�continuous mode activated sludge (SB-CMAS) system in the treatment of GSBE was investigated in this study. Response surface methodology (RSM) was used to optimize the process variables. At their optimized conditions, the performances of CMAS and SB-CMAS were analyzed in terms of COD and NH4+?N. Findings showed 81.21% and 95.50% COD and 78.31% and 87.34% NH4+?N reduction in concentration for CMAS and SB-CMAS, respectively.
