The use of computer simulation programs to evaluate and design wastewater treatment plants is becoming more prevalent; design engineers often implement models without adequate influent characterization and calibration. In this paper the STOAT (Sewage Treatment Operation and Analysis over Time) software is considered to simulate a real wastewater treatment plant, to analyze the solids retention time and the nutrients (N and P compounds) in the effluent taking into account different activated sludge models.Wastewater treatmentEffluentNutrientsSTOATUsing numerical simulation software for improving wastewater treatmentSymposium Proceedings
