📥Influent Characteristics

🏭Reactor Configuration

Based on IWA Activated Sludge Model No. 1 (Henze et al., 1987). Parameters at 20°C with Arrhenius temperature correction.

8 biological processes • 13 state variables • Runge-Kutta 4th order solver

ASM1 Features

  • Heterotrophic growth (aerobic & anoxic)
  • Autotrophic nitrification
  • Decay of biomass
  • Hydrolysis of particulate matter
  • Ammonification

Applications

  • Conventional activated sludge
  • Extended aeration
  • Nitrification systems
  • Pre-denitrification
