Abstract

See full text

An optimised bio-electrochemical reactor for treating a liquid effluent containing a biodegradable organic pollution. At least one of the anode and cathode compartments of the reactor is a microbial biofilm compartment (12) including a multi-stage current collector immersed in an electrolyte comprising electroactive microorganisms. This current collector includes at least two stages, each defining a chamber acting as a container for a biocompatible granular support material and letting the fluid pass through. The effluent circulates inside the compartment (12) according to an X direction crossing the stages of the current collector. In operation, the support material (17) is in a fluidised state resulting either from the circulation of the effluent, or from the circulation of a fluidisation gas allowing optimising the active surface of the electrode and, consequently, the treatment of the effluent.
