Transient response of aerobic and anoxic activated sludge activities to sudden substrate concentration changes

Abstract: The state-of-the-art understanding of activated sludge processes as summarized in activated sludge models (ASMs) predicts an instantaneous increase in the biomass activity (which is measured, e.g., by the corresponding respiration rate OUR, NUR, etc.) under sudden substrate concentration changes. Experimental data (e.g., short-term batch respiration experiments under aerobic or anoxic conditions) collected for the calibration of the dynamic models (ASMs) often exhibit a transient phenomenon while attaining max… Show more

“…3A). The high metabolic activity of microorganisms contained in activated sludge (14,56) combined with the potential presence of antibiotics may provide a selective environment for the enrichment of the bla M-1 gene, resulting in the highest GCN within the treatment process. The bla M-1 GCN ml Ϫ1 sample was significantly reduced (P Ͻ 0.0001) in the posttreatment principal effluent compared to that in other sites within the facility.…”

“…32 Its fate within the cell is highly dependent on the biological phenomena considered in the metabolic model. Although attempting to model storage and growth processes simultaneously for activated sludge systems, Vanrolleghem et al 17 have proposed modeling the dynamics of growth and storage using a first order time delay function (1 À e Àt/s) . Sin et al 19 have stipulated that the ratio between the substrate uptake rate and the substrate flux diverted to storage is constant.…”
