Abstract Due to the lengthy acclimation period of anaerobic biotechnology and agglomeration of nano zero-valent iron (nZVI), a filter press method was applied to prepare the nZVI modified polyvinylidene fluoride (nZVI@PVDF) membrane for application in the anaerobic biological system dedicated to 2-chlorophenol-contained wastewater treatment. An investigation was conducted into the effect of dechlorination, hydrolysis and acidification, and methane production stages on the coupled system. According to the investigative results, the removal rates of 2-chlorophenol (2-CP) in the coupling system containing three membranes with different nZVI loadings (0.075, 0.15, 0.3g) reached 99%, 97.6%, and 91.8% within 48 hours, respectively. In contrast, the removal rates of the control group without nZVI@PVDF reached merely 62.7%. Besides, the COD removal rate in the coupled systems reached 88.2%, 89.1%, 89.4%, while that of the control group was 63.6%. Moreover, the proportion of headspace methane in the coupled system reached 25.16%, 25.98%, and 26.80%, while that of the control group was as low as 16.82%. It was also discovered that the nZVI@PVDF membrane promoted the production of fatty acids when methane inhibitors were introduced. The nZVI@PVDF membrane facilitated not only the dechlorination of chlorophenols but also the production of fatty acids and methane.
