Benchmark Model for Wastewater Treatment Using an Activated Sludge Process

Published by Princeton University | Department of Energy | Catalog Last Checked: March 23, 2026 at 09:38 PM | Dataset Last Updated: August 13, 2025 at 01:57 PM
This is benchmark model for wastewater treatment using an activated sludge process. The activated sludge process is a means of treating both municipal and industrial wastewater. The activated sludge process is a multi-chamber reactor unit that uses highly concentrated microorganisms to degrade organics and remove nutrients from wastewater, producing quality effluent. This model provides pollutant concentrations, mass balance, electricity requirements, and treatment costs. This model will be continuously updated based on the latest data.
