The discharge of domestic and industrial waste water to surface or ground water is very dangerous to environment. The treatment of any kind of wastewater should produce effluent with good quality. In this regard choosing an effective treatment system is important. Sequencing batch reactor is a modification of activated sludge process which has been successfully used to treat municipal and industrial waste water. In this case SBR is modified (MSBR) with the application of coconut shell media which is distributed uniformly at the bottom of the aerobic reactor. The process could be applied for the removal of nutrients, high biochemical oxygen demand, chemical oxygen demand etc. Dairy wastewater is enriched in organic matter and also contains biodegradable carbohydrates. The inlet is connected to a feed pump having discharge capacity of 2 L per hour. The efficiency in removal of COD, BOD, and other parameters are checked for 24, 48 and 72 h respectively. The ammonia removal efficiency of MSBR is 85%. The BOD removal efficiency of MSBR in presence of coconut shell media is 79%, COD removal efficiency is 74%.References
