Process for the purification of an aqueous stream coming from the Fischer-Tropsch reaction which comprises: - feeding said aqueous stream containing the organic by-products of the reaction to a distillation column, obtaining two output streams: - an aqueous stream (i) exiting from the column head, enriched with alcohols having from 1 to 20 carbon atoms, preferably from 1 to 9 carbon atoms, and other optional volatile compounds; an aqueous stream (ii) exiting from the column bottom, enriched with organic acids having from 1 to 10 carbon atoms, preferably from 2 to 6 carbon atoms; - subjecting said aqueous stream (ii) to an anaerobic biological treatment obtaining a purified aqueous stream (iii); wherein said anaerobic biological treatment is carried out with a hydraulic retention time lower than 15 hours, preferably ranging from 4 hours to 10 hours, more preferably ranging from 5 hours to 8 hours.

L'invention porte sur un procédé pour la purification d'un courant aqueux sortant de la réaction de Fischer-Tropsch qui comprend les étapes consistant à : introduire ledit courant aqueux contenant les sous-produits organiques de la réaction dans une colonne de distillation, ce qui permet d'obtenir deux courants de sortie : un courant aqueux (i) sortant de la tête de la colonne, enrichi en alcools ayant de 1 à 20 atomes de carbone, de préférence de 1 à 9 atomes de carbone, et d'autres composés volatils éventuels ; un courant aqueux (ii) sortant du fond de la colonne, enrichi en acides organiques ayant de 1 à 10 atomes de carbone, de préférence de 2 à 6 atomes de carbone ; soumettre ledit courant aqueux (ii) à un traitement biologique anaérobie ce qui permet d'obtenir un courant aqueux purifié (iii) ; ledit traitement biologique anaérobie étant effectué avec un temps de rétention hydraulique inférieur à 15 heures, de préférence allant de 4 heures à 10 heures, de préférence encore allant de 5 heures à 8 heures.
