Oxygen supply for aeration tank
Without nitrification
With nitrification
For UASB

Input data

Concentration of BOD

Upstream flow

Output data

Oxygen mass

Description

 

Given the influent flow and BOD concentration, finds the supplying mass oxygen flow. Three possibilities are available:  

  • The activated sludge system will not perform the sewage nitrification (without nitrification);
  • The activated sludge system will perform the sewage nitrification (with nitrification);
  • The activated sludge system will treat the UASB reactors effluent (for UASB).
