DYNAMIC AND STEADY STATE PERFORMANCE OF UPFLOW ANAEROBIC SLUDGE BLANKET REACTOR
Journal Title: International Journal of Engineering Sciences & Research Technology - Year 30, Vol 5, Issue 8
Abstract
The simultaneous dynamic and steady state equations for substrate and biomass mass were used to assess the upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactor performance of municipal wastewater. The dynamic model equations were solved by using a m.file in MATLAB2011a software and dynamic equations for substrate and biomass concentrations. The objectives of this paper are (1) To develop a simple CSTR model for performance of UASB reactors (2) To evaluate the dynamic and steady state performances of UASB reactor treating municipal wastewater using the experimental results of Álveraz et al. (2008).
