Description

Performs several calculations related to activated sludge bioreactors:

  • Reactor Volume: Determines the required volume for effective treatment.
  • Biomass Concentration: Calculates the concentration of microorganisms in the reactor.
  • Sludge Age: Estimates the time microorganisms remain in the system.
  • Reactor Dimensions: Provides dimensions for reactor design.
  • Limiting Flow: Identifies maximum influent flow rate.
  • Surface Area: Calculates the necessary surface area for aeration.
  • Total Area: Determines the overall area required for the reactor setup.
