Application of Dynamic Models (asm1) and Simulation to Minimize Renovation Costs of a Municipal Activated Sludge Wastewater Treatment Plant

چکیده
Model-based scenario analysis with the ASM1 model was used to evaluate the effect of different process modifications on the biological nitrogen removal process for a specific case study (municipal wastewater treatment plant). Simulations showed that the construction of extra tank volume was needed to obtain the effluent standard of 15 mg N/l. However, the renovation scenarios resulting from a model-based analysis resulted in lower construction costs (less extra tank volume to be constructed and better reuse of existing treatment plant components) compared to a rule-of-thumb design as often applied.
