Résumé :
|
The biological aerated filter (BAF) is a three-phase reactor for waste water treatment that uses granular medium for biomass support. The parameter values from a process model for soluble COD were used to evaluate the impact of the medium characteristics and the process configuration on the performance of the BAF. In terms of reactor performance, the flow direction was more important than the medium characteristics. The results confirmed the applicability of the model.
