Abstract
A program for prediction of organic chemical fates in activated sludge processes has been implemented. Bio-oxidation, stripping, and biomass adsorption fate mechanisms were identified as major transport/conversion mechanisms in the activated sludge process. Each mechanism was studied separately and individual kinetic models were developed.
