High concentrations of grease easily inhibit anaerobic digestion. The stability of the process and microbial responses in the controlling internal circulation (CIC) reactor used for treating food waste were investigated under different grease contents and inner circulation ratios. Results showed that at the grease content of 1 g/L, the removal rates of 94% and 86–93% were achieved for chemical oxygen demand (COD) and NH₃–N, respectively. In contrast, when the grease content increased to 7 g/L, removal rates for COD and NH₃–N significantly decreased to 42.8 and 10%, respectively. In the three-dimensional excitation and emission matrix (3D-EEM) spectra of LB-EPS (loosely bound extracellular polymeric substances), the fluorescence intensity of coenzyme F₄₂₀ was weakened in the granular sludge, and the fluorescence peak of aromatic protein disappeared in the TB-EPS (tightly bound EPS). The activity and stability of the granular sludge deteriorated with increasing grease content, in this case at 7 g/L. However, when the inner cycle ratio was increased to 4, the removal rate of COD and NH₃–N increased to about 70 and 76%, respectively. The adverse effects of grease could be decreased by increasing the inner cycle ratio. When the grease content increased from 1 to 7 g/L, the abundance of Methanofollis increased from 9.93 to 46.41%, while Methanothrix abundance was reduced from 18.4 to 3.07%. It could indicate that Methanothrix was sensitive to high grease content.
