| Résumé: | The aim of this study was to investigate optimum conditions for biological removal of flue gas pretreatment wastewater and achieve maximum elemental sulfur yield. A three-factor, three-level Box-Behnken design was used to derive a second-order polynomial equation and construct contour plots to predict responses. The independent variables selected were hydraulic retention time (X₁), inlet sulfate concentration (X₂), and air flow (X₃). Fifteen batches were done in a biological united system and evaluated for elemental sulfur yield (Y₁). The transformed values of the independent variables and Y₁ were subjected to a full-model second-order polynomial equation. The equation was modified based on Fisher's F- and probability P-values. The computer optimization process and contour plots predicted the values of independent variables X₁, X₂ and X₃ (16 h, 1,348 mg L⁻¹ and 165 L h⁻¹ respectively), for maximized response of Y₁. The experimental results at predicted conditions demonstrate that the modified model equation has good applicability to the practical system |
