The system was operated at increasing volumetric loading rates by sequentially increasing wastewater flowrate. The operational temperature was maintained initially at 37 oC and consequently decreased to 30 and 25 oC. For the volumetric loading rates examined i.e. 5-35 KgCOD m-3d-1), the UASB attained COD removal levels higher than 70%. The first-order kinetics were found to be suitable for representation of the substrate removal. The kinetic constant decreased from 23 to 21 and 19 d-1 at 37, 30 and 25 oC respectively. Prediction of effluent COD and methane production rate during continuous reactor operation was possible using the first-order kinetic model. </p></abstract><publication_date><month>04</month><day>30</day><year>2013</year></publication_date><pages><first_page>175</first_page><last_page>180</last_page></pages><publisher_item><identifier id_type="pii">562</identifier></publisher_item><doi_data><doi>10.30955/gnj.000562</doi><timestamp>1713273403</timestamp><resource>https://journal.gnest.org/publication/562</resource></doi_data></journal_article></journal></body></doi_batch> </div>
