Mathematical Analysis of a Three-Tiered Model of Anaerobic Digestion

Abstract: In this paper, we are interested in a mechanistic model describing the anaerobic mineralization of chlorophenol in a three-step food-web. The model is a six-dimensional system of ordinary differential equations. In our study, we take into account the phenol and the hydrogen input concentrations as well as the maintenance terms. Moreover, we consider the case of a large class of growth rates, instead of specific kinetics. In this general case, a recent study shows that the system can have up to eight steady sta… Show more

“…However, the accuracy of the results depends on the step used for the discretization of the set of operating parameters. For example, important phenomena were not detected in [53], as the emergence of limit cycles through Hopf bifurcations, which were discovered in the studies using analytical methods [39,38,44].…”

“…The organisms involved in the resulting three-tiered model are the chlorophenol-dechlorinating bacterium, the phenol degrader and the hydrogenotrophic methanogen. Several authors studied the three-tiered model, see [12,21,20,26,29,30]. Using specific growth rates, Wade et al [30] have proven that the model can have up to eight steady states.…”

“…The necessary and sufficient conditions of the local stability are performed analytically when maintenance is excluded. Then, these results of local stability are extended in [20] to the case where maintenance is included. Using a large class of growth functions, we have provided rigorous proofs for the results of [30] on the existence and stability of the steady states, which, for the most part, were obtained only numerically and for specific kinetics in [30].…”
