Management and disposal of waste poses a challenge for many industries in complying with environmental regulations. Adding value to the waste materials generated from industries would be economically beneficial for industries. There is a need for effective and sustainable infrastructure that has potential to add value to waste materials through the extraction of valuable products. Anaerobic membrane bioreactors (AnMBRs) are becoming popular compared to conventional anaerobic bioreactors, especially for the treatment of biodegradable industrial waste with high solids content, because of their ability to retain a high quantity of active biomass for a longer duration, produce lower quantities of sludge, and superior quality of effluent with smaller footprints. The main aim of the proposed research is to advance the application of AnMBRs through the development of innovative configurations for the treatment and value addition to biodegradable, high-solids, and starch-based potato processing wastes. Its feasibility with respect to efficiency, yield of valuable products (lactic acid and bioenergy), and membrane performance will be investigated in this project. The results of the proposed research will further strengthen and advance an on-going innovation in AnMBRs in collaboration with a Canadian industry for a commercially viable and sustainable application of membrane-integrated anaerobic bioreactor technology in the area of value-added management of industrial wastes, particularly those generated from food processing and pulp production industries.

废物的管理和处置给许多行业在遵守环境法规方面带来了挑战。增加工业产生的废物的价值对工业来说是经济上有利的。需要有效和可持续的基础设施，有可能通过提取有价值的产品来增加废物的价值。厌氧膜生物反应器(AnMBR)与传统的厌氧生物反应器相比，由于能够较长时间地保持较高的活性生物量，产生较少的污泥量，且出水水质较好，占地面积较小，特别是在处理高固体含量的可生物降解的工业废水方面，受到了越来越多的关注。拟议研究的主要目的是通过开发可生物降解的、高固体分和淀粉基的马铃薯加工废物的处理和增值的创新配置，促进ANMBR的应用。本项目将从效率、有价值产品(乳酸和生物能源)的产率以及膜性能方面对其可行性进行研究。拟议的研究结果将进一步加强和推进与加拿大一个行业合作正在进行的ANMBR创新，使膜集成厌氧生物反应器技术在工业废物增值管理领域，特别是食品加工和纸浆生产行业产生的废物增值管理领域具有商业可行性和可持续应用。
