An object is to provide a degrading bacteria-immobilized carrier on which a 1,4-dioxane-degrading bacterium is supported, as well as a biodegradation treatment method for organic compounds, and a biodegradation treatment apparatus, both using this carrier. As a means for achieving the object, a degrading bacteria-immobilized carrier comprising a porous carrier and a 1,4-dioxane-degrading bacterium supported on the porous carrier, as well as a biodegradation treatment method for organic compounds, and a biodegradation treatment apparatus, both using this carrier, are provided.

Provided is a method for forming aerobic granules in which a semibatch reactor for forming granules is used, the method involving repeatedly carrying out an inflowing step for causing organic-matter-containing wastewater that includes organic matter to flow in, a biological treatment step for biologically treating substances to be treated in the organic-matter-containing drainage water by using microbial sludge, a settling step for allowing the microbial sludge to settle out, and a discharge step for discharging biologically treated water which has been biologically treated, wherein the reaction time is adjusted such that the value obtained by dividing the total cycle time by the reaction time and multiplying the resulting quotient by the ratio of the MLSS concentration to the BOD load charged into the semibatch reactor is within a range of 0.05 to 0.25 kgBOD/kgMLSS/d, and the sludge is drawn such that the sludge retention period is 5 to 25 days.

Method for forming aerobic granules, device for forming aerobic granules, method for treating wastewater, and device for treating wastewater

A granule-forming method using a semi-batch reaction tank, wherein: operation cycles of a first operation cycle for performing a biological treatment step at a first sludge load and after the first operation cycle, a second operation cycle for performing the biological treatment step at a second sludge load are performed repeatedly; the first sludge load is set so that the soluble BOD concentration in the semi-batch reaction tank at the time of completion of the biological treatment step of the first operation cycle does not decrease to a threshold value or less; and the second sludge load is set so that the soluble BOD concentration in the semi-batch reaction tank at the time of completion of the biological treatment step of the second operation cycle is at or below the threshold value.

Granule-forming method and waste water treatment method

An apparatus for biological treatment of water in which a water containing organic matter (e.g. waste water, recovered water, or untreated water in water treatment works) is biologically treated to decompose and remove the organic matter, which apparatus comprises a formed material comprising a felt-like activated carbon fiber cloth, accomodated in the treatment vessel as a packing medium, which has a ratio of surface area (cm.sup.2) of felt-like activated carbon fiber cloth to effective volume (cm.sup.3) of the treatment vessel, of 0.5-50 cm.sup.2 /cm.sup.3, and which is arranged so that the cloth surface is vertical and the cloth-to-cloth distance is 0.5-2.0 cm, thereby shortening the rise time from operation start to stable operation, and efficiently operating over a long period of time.
