The anaerobic processes literature review offers a comprehensive review of the literature published in 2009 on topics relating to water pollution control in systems operating without oxygen and exploiting part of or all of the biochemistry presented in the classic anaerobic system model. Anaerobic systems, like the upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactor and the anaerobic filter (AF), are the traditional emphasis of anaerobic processes literature review. This review is divided into the following sections: modeling advances, hydrogen production, treatability studies, toxicity studies, anammox, integrated approaches, microbiology, and process technology.
