Development and applications of enzymatic kinetic models for upgrading the design and operation of biological nutrient removal processes

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

The proposed research is to modify the existing enzymatic kinetic equations or develop new enzymatic kinetic equations for describing various process reactions in an activated sludge process especially for nutrient removal from different types of wastewaters. These newly developed equations will be used to modify the existing ASM and BioWin matrix models, with the objectives to improve the design and operation of biological nutrient removal processes, and to protect aquatic environment and public health by reducing negative environmental impacts attributed to excessive discharge of nutrients into aquatic ecosystems.
