Efficacies of a locust bean gum polymer on the startup of a novel upflow anaerobic sludge blanket reactor treating municipal sewage

The present study investigates the potential of locust bean gum (LBG), in accelerating the startup of a novel upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactor handling municipal sewage. Under identical conditions, two lab-scale UASB reactors were operated in parallel, to substantiate this idea. The no...
