Domestic wastewater (DWW) can be preconcentrated to facilitate energy recovery via anaerobic digestion (AD), following the concept of “carbon capture–anaerobic conversion–bioenergy utilization.” Herein, real DWW and preconcentrated domestic wastewater (PDWW) were both subject to particle size fractionation (0.45–2000 μm). DWW is a type of low-strength wastewater (average COD of 440.26 mg/L), wherein 60% of the COD is attributed to the substances with particle size greater than 0.45 μm. Proteins, polysaccharides, and lipids are the major DWW components. PDWW with a high COD concentration of 2125.89 ± 273.71 mg/L was obtained by the dynamic membrane filtration (DMF) process. PDWW shows larger proportions of settleable and suspended fractions, and accounted for 63.4% and 33.8% of the particle size distribution, and 52.4% and 32.2% of the COD, respectively. The acceptable biomethane potential of 262.52 ± 11.86 mL CH₄/g COD of PDWW indicates bioenergy recovery is feasible based on DWW preconcentration and AD.
