Abstract: Enhanced biological phosphorus removal (EBPR) is an effective nutrient removal process that has been engineered and successfully applied in wastewater treatment for decades. Although the prevalent microorganism performing ...

Abstract: The potential for simultaneous sludge minimization and enhanced biological phosphorus removal (EBPR) in Cannibal solids reduction processes was investigated. To simulate a Cannibal-EBPR system, a sequencing batch reactor ...

Abstract: A fully quantitative cellular automaton (CA) biofilm model was developed. The model describes substrate and biomass as discrete particles existing and interacting in a specified physical domain. Substrate particles move ...

Abstract: A suspended growth nitrification model was developed to describe nitrification dynamics in terms of chloramine, ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, and nitrifying bacteria concentrations in pilot-scale chloraminated drinking water ...

Abstract: Mathematical modeling using the cellular automata (CA) approach is an attractive alternative to models based on partial differential equations when the domains to be simulated have complex boundary conditions. The computational ...
