Topics include kinetics of biological growth and substrate utilization, materials balance in chemostats and plug flow reactors, activated sludge process analysis and design, sedimentation and ...

The two strains compete for a single growth-limiting nutrient and for limited adhesion sites on the wall of the reactor. The mathematical model described in this paper is motivated in part by the CSTR ...

Technical Terms Oscillatory Flow Reactor (OFR): A reactor design that combines net flow with an imposed oscillatory motion to enhance mixing and mass transfer.

The hydraulic behavior of the aeration tank for the first treatment line, a 7-cell plug-flow reactor, was shown to be best represented by 5 virtual mixed-tanks-in-series. The second treatment line, ...
