Abstract
A NOVEL MODEL OF ACTIVATED SLUDGE USING MONOD KINETICS TO DESCRIBE THE COMPETITION OF MICROBIAL POPULATIONS ON GROWTH LIMITING SUBSTRATEA novel model for activated sludge sewage treatment was developed to predict exploitative competition of six heterotrophic bacterial species competing for three complementary growth limiting substrates using the non-interactive Monod equation. The central hypothesis of the model is that in a multi-species/substrate system the number of coexisting bacterial species, N, exceeds the number of...Author(s)Pascal E. SaikalyPeter G.
