摘要：The requirement of milk and milk products is kept growing in steady rate, making a significant impact onthe Indian agricultural domain. The dairy industries require large quantity of water for the purpose ofwashing of canes, machinery and floors, and the liquid waste in dairy originates from themanufacturing processes, utilities and service sections. The various sources of waste generationfrom a dairy are spilled milk, spoiled milk and skimmed milk whey. The objective of this study is to focuson finding out the optimal parameters for efficient biodegradation of organics in the dairy wastewater.An experimental setup was designed and fabricated, and made to comprehend the degree ofwastewater stabilization in the form of COD at variable experimental conditions. The maincharacteristics of dairy waste streams were identified and the anaerobic degradation of the wastewaterin the fixed film fixed bed reactor was carried out with operating condition of variable organic loadingrates.
