Abstract
Very few methods have been developed with such speed as anaerobic wastewater treatment. Universities, Government agencies, private enterprise and scientists all over the world are using millions of dollars in studies, pilot and full scale experiments trying to find the most practical anaerobic treatment systems for various wastewaters. The follow-up alone of all the information published in this field would require an institute of its own. Commercial interests are driving private enterprise to fast development of full scale treatment plants. In this paper the reasons for this interest in anaerobic treatment are focused on in the light of the recent developments in knowledge of the quality and quantity of forest industry wastewaters. Future wastewater characteristics and the possibility of anaerobic treatment to meet future demands are discussed. The need for co-operation between forest industry process engineers and wastewater treatment specialists is emphasized in order to optimize internal and external pollution control methods.
