An experimental set-up for a laboratory-type upflow anaerobic sludge blanket reactor was conducted at the Animal Science Department of the Don Severino Agricultural College, Indang Cavite from January to February 1997. Specifically, it aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of gravel, plastic net and porous rocks as filtering materials; evaluate the wastewater quality; and determine the gas production rate of UASB reactor. The result of the study shows that retention period has a significant effect among treatments. In addition, total solids are also significantly affected by both the filtering materials and retention period. As far as percentage total solids is concerned, porous rocks gave the best result with 5.47 % and 8.48 % lowest and highest percentage reduction, respectively. After the conduct of the study, it was found out that wastewater treated with the upflow anaerobic sludge blanket reactor is safe to dispose to class C receiving bodies of water because it passed the effluent standard by the DENR.
