Biodefoamer-Supported Activated Sludge System for the Treatment of Poultry Slaughterhouse Wastewater

Poultry slaughterhouse wastewater (PSW) is laden with fats, oil, and grease (FOG), as well as proteins. As such, PSW promotes the proliferation of filamentous organisms, which cause foam formation. In this study, the production of biological defoamers (biodefoamers) uses a consortium with antagonist...
