This procedure is used to represent transformations of sludge and other compounds that take place under anaerobic conditions. Any number of reactions in sequence can be specified by stoichiometry and kinetics with a variety of kinetic expressions.
● Gas Output: the designated output port for VOC emissions.
● Product: the designated output port for the reaction products.
The following operation types are currently supported in the context of this unit procedure:
● Bio-React (Kinetic.), see Kinetic Anaerobic Digestion
● Hold, see Holding
Note that operation Hold is only available in semi-continuous operating mode.
The following procedures offer a similar functionality:
● Stoichiometric Anaerobic Digestion Procedure
● Stoichiometric Anoxic Reaction Procedure
● Kinetic Anoxic Reaction Procedure
● Trickling Filtration Procedure
