Abstract

In this paper, the influence of inorganic salt on aerobic biodegradability of dyestuffs was studied by means of semi-continuous activated sludge method. It was found that: biodegradability of dyestuffs would decrease with the increase of the concentration of NaCl; however, biodegradability in the condition of NaCl=30 g/L was better than that in the condition of NaCl=15 g/L; in the three conditions, biodegradability of tested dyestuffs followed the following order: NaCl=0 g/L > NaCl=30 g/L>NaCl=15 g/L.
