The development of a three phase plant-wide mathematical model for sewage treatment

To aid in finding the most cost effective methods for the design and operation of wastewater treatment plants, for minimization of energy consumption and cost while maximizing nutrient recovery and improving effluent quality, the purpose of this project is to develop three phase (aqueous-gas-solid) steady state and dynamic mathematical models for the anaerobic and aerobic digestion of sludge; including waste activated sludge (WAS) produced by biological excess phosphorus removal (BEPR) plants, within a plant-wide setting.
