Title:
Mechanistic Modeling Developments for Newer Processes
Description:
Three case studies will put a spotlight on mechanistic modelling developments to address newer treatment processes. Participants will analyze a biomass densification model and use it to investigate improved operational capacity. In the second case study, attendees will apply a process control strategy in a full-plant dynamic model to enhance and stabilize the operation of a post aerobic digester (PAD). Finally, participants will investigate a calibrated mechanistic model of an anaerobic moving bed biofilm reactor (AnMBBR) to explore performance boundaries.
Interactive Session | Case Study AnalysisLearning Objectives
At the end of this session, participants will be able to:
1. Assess the benefits of modelling biomass densification in full-scale MBR and MABR WWTPs and compare the predicted performance against measured responses.
2. Apply process control strategy in dynamic modeling to optimize a full-scale PAD.
3. Develop and calibrate an AnMBBR model and use it to explore performance boundaries while meeting treatment objectives.
