In recent decades, the use of anaerobic biofilm reactors for the treatment of various effluents has become established. The ability to keep microorganisms alive acted as a biofilm factor that influenced the reactor's performance. The performance of the reactor is typically assessed in terms of process efficiency and stability by estimating organic matter removal, VFA levels, the quantity and composition of biogas produced, and so on. The goal of this study is to assess the efficacy of treating a high-pollution-potential dairy effluent. The effluent was tested with an average value of 172.8, 132.0, 193.0, 203.0, and 172 mg/L of Volatile Fatty Acid (VFA) and an Organic Loading Rate (OLR) of 0.1502, to 0.266 kg COD/m3/day, w. At 3 days Hydraulic Retention Time (HRT), the maximum COD elimination efficiency of 84 percent was observed, along with biogas production of 0.048m3/kg COD.
