Abstract

The laundry business sector is expanding quickly nowadays. However, the laundry industry is still dealing with the issue of processing detergent wastewater. Anaerobic and aerobic bioreactors may efficiently solve this problem. This narrative review aims to assess the feasibility of using anaerobic and aerobic bioreactors for detergent wastewater treatment. Its advantages and disadvantages and the idea of combining multi-media filtration and UV light in detergent wastewater treatment using an aerobic and aerobic bioreactor. The anaerobic bioreactor can reduce chemical and biological oxygen demand to 89.8 % and 94.0 %, respectively. At the same time, aerobic bioreactors can reduce chemical and biological oxygen demand to 99.1% and 71%, respectively. However, some challenges still need to be addressed to make anaerobic ad aerobic bioreactors can be implemented. Suspended solid production, dissolved methane, and temperature-dependent effectiveness are challenges that must be solved. Multi-media filtration can reduce suspended solids and provide ion exchange, while UV light kills excess microorganisms from the bioreactor.
