TLDR
Clean water tests performed at 38 wastewater treatment plants are presented, finding that small open channels can meet sufficient SAE values but fail to meet in this range of tank volumes those of total floor coverage cylindrical tanks.

Predicting oxygen transfer of fine bubble diffused aeration systems—model issued from dimensional analysis

TL;DR: The standard oxygenation performances of fine bubble diffused aeration systems in clean water, measured in 12 cylindrical tanks, were analysed using dimensional analysis and evidences the superiority of the total floor coverage over an arrangement whereby the diffusers are placed on separate grids.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of aeration patterns on the flow field in wastewater aeration tanks

TL;DR: CFD enhanced with a biokinetic model and full scale validation using velocity and reactive tracer measurements with high temporal and spatial resolution shows that small changes in the diffuser arrangement drastically change the overall flow field.

Standard Guidelines for In-Process Oxygen Transfer Testing

TL;DR: The standard guidelines for in-process oxygen transfer testing as discussed by the authors describes several proven techniques for measuring oxygen transfer under process conditions Nonsteady state, offgas and inert gas tracer methods are detailed in this standard, followed by a brief discussion comparing the methods.

Reduction of aeration costs by tuning a multi-set point on/off controller: A case study

TL;DR: In this article, the optimal set point values should allow the attainment of a good quality of effluent wastewater and minimise the operational costs related to the aeration process, and a more stable system was obtained.
Journal ArticleDOI

Compartmental models for continuous flow reactors derived from CFD simulations.

TL;DR: This paper provides research and practice with a methodology designed to automatically reduce the complexity of such a high-dimensional flow model to a compartmental model, which is fast, easy to use, and open for process modeling with yet unknown compounds.

Measurement of Oxygen Transfer in Clean Water

Asce
TL;DR: In this paper, a 5.25-in floppy disk intended to work on hardware/software configurations in existence when the book was published in 1993 is described. But it is not available anymore.

Oxygen transfer efficiency measurements in mixed liquor using off-gas techniques

TL;DR: It has been reported that approximately 1.75 million hp of aeration equipment is currently in place on the North American continent, in both municipal and in dustrial treatment facilities.

Effect of horizontal flow on oxygen transfer in clean water and in clean water with surfactants

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of horizontal flow on bubble size and oxygen transfer was examined in a 400-L pilot of oxidation ditch in clean water, the oxygen transfer increased by 38% when applying a horizontal velocity of 044m s −1, although bubble diameter was increased by 24%.

Influence des facteurs de conception et des conditions de fonctionnement des stations d'epuration en boues activees sur le transfert d'oxygene

TL;DR: In this article, a partir de 88 mesures de reoxygenation d'eau claire realisees sur 31 stations and a l'aide de l'analyse dimensionnelle, deux relations permettant de predire le transfert d'oxygene ont ete developpees en fonction des parametres du systeme (debit d'air, densite de diffuseurs, hauteur d-eau, avec ou sans vitesse horizontale du liquide).
