Abstract
The work aimed to determine the effectiveness of the treatment of wastewater generated by the meat industry in a hybrid system combining biological methods of activated sludge (in an SBR reactor) and reverse osmosis. The tests carried out on the wastewater from the meat processing plant Uni-Lang in Wrzosowa showed that the biological treatment resulted in sufficient removal of contaminants from the wastewater, which consequently could be discharged into receiving water. In order to make it possible for the wastewater to be reused in the production cycle, it was additionally treated with reverse osmosis. The research was described mathematically by the program MATLAB using artificial neural networks. The program enables a prediction of the results for the treatment of wastewater over a range of tested values.
