Abstract

Introduction is given to the content of activated sludge model No.3 (ASM3). The simulation program which based on the integration of ASM3 and Anaerobic Digestion Model was used to simulate A2/O with AquaMats Process. The predicted results of effluent COD, NH3-N and NO3-N accorded with the actuality. The removal efficiency of TP was quite low when sludge return rate was 100%. Based on this condition, the improved scheme which adjusts sludge reflux ratio to 60% was put forward and simulated. Process was optimized depending on the simulation results and the removal efficiencies of COD, NH3-N and TP reached to 83.1%, 98.75 and 24.01%. It is verified that ASM3 can be used as the platform of activated sludge process design.
