Anaerobic biotechnology has become widely accepted by the environmental industry as a cost-effective alternative to the conventional treatment process for wastewater and biosolids. In addition, with the intrinsic advantages of energy saving, reduced sludge yield, and production of biofuel, anaerobic process will be the favored green treatment technology for sustainable environment in years to come.
