AB  - A multi-stage pilot-scale treatment cycle consisting of an Upflow Anaerobic 
      Sludge Blanket reactor (UASB) followed by an anoxic-aerobic Ultra Filtration 
      Membrane Bio Reactor (UF-MBR) and a post treatment based on chemical 
      precipitation with lime or adsorption on Granular Activated Carbons (GAC), was 
      applied in order to evaluate the treatment feasibility of a real winery 
      distillery wastewater at laboratory and bench scale. The wastewater was 
      classified as high strength with acidic pH (3.8), and concentrations of 44,600, 
      254, 604 and 660 mg/l for COD(tot), total nitrogen, total phosphorous and 
      phenols, respectively. The UASB reactor was operated at Organic Loading Rates 
      (OLR) in the range 3.0-11.5 kgCOD(tot)/m(3)/d achieving treatment efficiency up 
      to 97%, with an observed methane production of 340 L of CH(4)/kgCOD. The MBR 
      system was operated with an organic load in the range 0.070-0.185 kgCOD/kgVSS/d, 
      achieving a removal up to 48%, 67% and 65% of the influent COD, total nitrogen 
      and phenols, respectively. The combination of UASB and UF-MBR treatment units was 
      not effective in phosphate and colour removal assigning to further chemical 
      precipitation and adsorption processes, respectively, their complete removal in 
      order to comply with legal standards for wastewater discharge. Subsequently, the 
      optimization of the investigated treatment chain was assessed by applying a 
      chemical precipitation step upstream and downstream the UASB reactor, and a 
      related treatment unit cost assessment is presented in view of a further 
      technological scale-up.
