Abstract
Processes, methods, and systems are disclosed for treatment and removal of peracetic acid (PAA), quaternary ammonia compounds (Quat), hydrogen peroxide, chlorine, chloramines, chlorinated organics, surfactants, and other such chemicals from wastewater pretreatment processes typically employed by livestock processing, meat processing, and/or food processing plants that generate wastewater outflows. Treatment and/or removal of these chemicals commonly found in such wastewater allows the further treatment of the wastewater downstream by commonly employed biological wastewater treatment processes such as anaerobic, anoxic, or aerobic suspended growth activated sludge processes; anaerobic, anoxic, or aerobic fixed growth, IFAS, moving bed bioreactor (MBBR) or Membrane Bioreactor (MBR) processes; anaerobic lagoons; anaerobic fluidized bed or fixed bed processes; and/or, anaerobic sludge digestion processes commonly employed for biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) removal, ammonia removal, total nitrogen removal, and/or phosphorus removal.
