The treatment of oil-containlng wastewater from refining factory by bio-adsorption was investigated for reclaiming the lipid. The effects of several process parameters on lipid adsorption rate and COD of treated water were examined. The results showed that the lipid adsorption rate of 64.44% and the COD reduction rate of 58.9% could be achieved at the initial concentration of bacterium QJ3011 of 1.0 × 10^7CFU/mL in wastewater with cultivation for 12 h and adsorption for 36 h. The study suggestes that the bio-adsorption process is a promising t...
