Online resources: Summary: "The book describes how to use kinetic models based on the concept of biomass growth and growth stoichiometry to simulate, design and optimize biological wastewater treatment processes. The general approach used in the book is to write rate equations for the various processes occurring and coupling them with mass balances specific for each process. The resulting system of non linear equations or of differential equation is then solved using Microsoft Excel. By varying the values of the design variables, the process is designed, simulated and optimized. In addition to the traditional design variables such as reactor volume, substrate removal, excess sludge production, particular focus is given in the book to pH calculation, which is particularly important for nitrogen removal and anaerobic processes. The book also shows how this modeling methodology can be applied to specific case studies reported in the literature."--Summary: 1.3 THE ROLE OF BIOLOGICAL PROCESSES IN WASTEWATER TREATMENT 1.4 MICROORGANISMS' GROWTH ON SUBSTRATES ; 1.5 OTHER PHENOMENA OCCURRING IN BIOLOGICAL WASTEWATER TREATMENT PROCESSES ; 1.5.1 Hydrolysis of Slowly Biodegradable Substrates ; 1.5.2 Endogenous Metabolism and MaintenanceSummary: 1.8 GENERAL ASSUMPTIONS MADE IN THIS BOOK 1.9 KEY POINTS ; CHAPTER 2: Modelling Processes in Biological Wastewater Treatment ; 2.1 MICROBIAL GROWTH ; 2.1.1 Stoichiometry ; 2.1.1.1 Stoichiometry of Anabolism ; 2.1.1.2 Stoichiometry of Catabolism ; 2.1.1.3 Overall Growth StoichiometrySummary: 1.8 GENERAL ASSUMPTIONS MADE IN THIS BOOK 1.9 KEY POINTS ; CHAPTER 2: Modelling Processes in Biological Wastewater Treatment ; 2.1 MICROBIAL GROWTH ; 2.1.1 Stoichiometry ; 2.1.1.1 Stoichiometry of Anabolism ; 2.1.1.2 Stoichiometry of Catabolism ; 2.1.1.3 Overall Growth StoichiometrySummary: Cover ; Half Title ; Title Page ; Copyright Page ; Dedication ; Table of Contents ; Preface ; About the Author ; CHAPTER 1: Biological Wastewater Treatment Processes ; 1.1 POLLUTING PARAMETERS IN WASTEWATERS ; 1.2 COD AND BOD ; 1.2.1 COD ; 1.2.2 BOD ; 1.2.3 The COD BalanceSummary: "The book describes how to use kinetic models based on the concept of biomass growth and growth stoichiometry to simulate, design and optimize biological wastewater treatment processes.
