  text: <jats:p>Treatment of wastewater from a tannery in Greater Ho Chi Minh City
    (Vietnam) was investigated on a pilot scale. After pre-treatment by the tannery
    that included batch-coagulation and sedimentation, the wastewater was treated
    by dissolved air flotation, a membrane bioreactor (MBR) and granular activated
    carbon (GAC) for polishing the MBR effluent. The average removal efficiency for
    organic substances in the MBR was 81% while total nitrogen could only be removed
    by 36%. The performance of the GAC column could be successfully predicted using
    adsorption parameters determined in laboratory experiments. A larger proportion
    of the organics in the MBR effluent was only weakly adsorbable, therefore the
    usable carbon capacity was limited as confirmed by the modelling approach. The
    results were used to outline the size of a technical plant with a volumetric loading
    rate of 3 kg COD/(m3*d) for the MBR and a specific carbon demand of about 1.8
    kg/m3.</jats:p>
