Organic loading rate (OLR), Hydraulic Retention Time (HRT) and up flow velocity are important parameters significantly affecting microbial ecology and characteristics of anaerobic reactors. In this study, Performance of an anaerobic hybrid reactor (UASB/Filter) at mesophilic condition was evaluated in a 15.4 L reactor receiving petrochemical wastewater. The temperature of influent was adjusted by an inline heat exchanger at around 35 ˚C. The reactor was seeded with flocculent sludge from a UASB plant treating dairy wastewater. The sludge was acclimatized to petrochemical wastewater in twostage operation. After 39 weeks, a COD reduction of 70.3% was obtained at OLR=2.0 kg m-3 d-1 and HRT=18 h. Under steady state conditions, experiments were conducted at OLRs of between 0.5 and 24 kg TCOD m-3 d-1 , hydraulic retention times (HRT) of 4-48 h and up flow velocities 0.021-0.25 m h-1. Removal efficiencies in the range of 42-86% were achieved at feed TCOD concentrations of 1000- 4000 mg L-1 . The biogas production data used for determination of biogas production kinetics. The values of Gmax and GB estimated as 11.173 LL-1d -1 and 85.83 g L-1d -1 , respectively.

With an aim to shorten start-up time of an Anaerobic Hybrid Reactor (AHR), initial biofilm development was studied, particularly at different upflow feeding velocities. At a low (0.01 m·h-1) upflow velocity, initial biofilm was found to develop via the attachment of suspended biomass in the packed zone, while microbial growth on the film was insignificant. Contrarily, with higher (1.0 m·h-1) upflow velocity, initial biofilm development was from both microbial attachment and growth on supporting media. Biofilm thickness was determined using confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM), which indicated that the biofilm developed faster with the higher velocity, due to the contribution of the microbial growth on supporting media. When operated beyond the initial biofilm development with the lower velocity, both the activity of acetogens and the methanogens increased, although there was a lower amount of attached biomass on the supporting media. Whereas, both groups were found to decrease with higher upflow velocity, but acidogenic activity increased. It can be concluded that higher upflow velocity positively affected the initial stage of biofilm development and has the potential to accelerate attached biomass on supporting media during the initial phase. Subsequently, the upflow velocity should be reduced to the normal rate to enhance the methanogenic activity.
