Consuming large amounts of water consequently produces significant quantities of water which are characterised by a high organic content and high concentration of suspended solids, inorganic salts and nutrients.}, abstract={The study attempted to determine the influence of the HRT and OLR on biogas production and the treatment of wastewater from the meat industry, and it was found that the most preferred treatment process carried out was at HRT 3d (OLR-0.55 kgCOD/m3d). The anaerobic process under HRT 3d obtained a considerable degree of the removal of organic pollutants from raw wastewater designated as COD (79%), BOD (77%) and TOC (73%).}, abstract={The concentrations of COD and BOD were 350 mg/dm3 and 363 mg/dm3 respectively. The value of TOC reached a level of 142 mg/dm3. Due to its poor quality, effluent from a UASB reactor cannot be discharged into natural water without additional treatment processes. The addition of reverse osmosis in the meat industry wastewater treatment is suggested.}, type={artykuł}, title={The application of UASB reactor in meat industry wastewater treatment = Zastosowanie reaktora UASB do oczyszczania ścieków z zakładów mięsnych}, keywords={oczyszczanie ścieków z zakładów mięsnych, biogaz, reaktor UASB, meat industry wastewater, hydraulic retention time, biogas, reactor UASB}, }
