Operation Modes
OUR Static
From a mixed-liquor of the aeration tank it is determined the OUR & SOUR within the time and section we have selected in the corresponding respirogram.
OUR (mg/l.h): Total oxygen uptake rate from mixed-...
OUR (mg/l.h): Total oxygen uptake rate from mixed-liquor.
SOUR (mg/g.h): Specific OUR
Our Cyclic
On this mode, the analyzer performs a respirogram within a programmed DO threshold and determines the orresponding OUR & SOUR in base of the continuous sequentially executed measurements.
R dynamic
A DO base line is fixed from an endogenous respiration activated sludge and then added a certain amount of sample to be analyzed. In the respirogram, continuous measurements of Rs are showed permitting the simultaneous and continuous determination of CO and bCOD. In this way we can track the values evolution along the time as an actual window of the substrate oxidation from activated sludge.
Rs (mg/l.h) : Exogenous respiration rate corresponding to the substrate oxidation.
Rsp (mg/g.h) : Specific Rs.
CO (mg/l) : Consumed oxygen accumulated in the substrate oxidation (BODst)
bCOD (mg/l) : Biodegradable fraction of total COD (bCOD) or Readily biodegradable fraction of COD (rbCOD)
U (mg COD/I.h) : Substrate utilization rate
q (COD/SS.d) : Specific substrate utilization rate
Typical Applications
- Oxygen requirement and energy optimization
Actual oxygen requirement for any specific process.
Optimal and minimum DO level in the aeration tank, without any detriment of the process efficiency. - Bioaugmentation control and tracking
By means the regular respiration rate measurement we can asses the result of the augmentation effect, to know if it is necessary to increase the dose of biomass and when it has reached its maximum effect. - COD fractioning
Automatic calculation of the COD biodegradable fraction (bCOD) or COD readily biodegradable (rbCOD).
Many times the COD fractions can be determined by ...
Many times the COD fractions can be determined by means a single R test

- Influence of the temperature, pH and oxygen and other conditions on the activated sludge process
Thanks to the capacity to set and modify the test conditions, we can analyze the influence of any of them (or any combination) in the biomass activity and figure out break‐points, optimum and minimum working levels.
Operative parameter optimization
- Operative parameter optimization
Loading rate (F/M), Sludge age (SRT) y Returned sludge rate (RR). - Nitrification
Nitrification rate (AUR), Specific nitrification rate (SAUR, qN), optimal DO range for nitrification, Necessary hydraulic time for ammonium‐nitrogen removal, Nitrification capacity, minimum sludge age for nitrification (TRCN). - Denitrification
Starting from the actual value of rbCOD, it is possible to determine the actual nitrate concentration that the process is capable to remove.
Starting from the specific respiration rate of the anoxic biomass, it is possible to estimate the corresponding denitrification rate (NUR). - Toxicity referred to one specific biomass
Fast screening qualitative test and by means of comparison of the actual respiration rates of one mixed‐liquor prepared with the sample and another from one standard compound as reference. - Nutrients
Starting from rbCOD, N and P concentrations, nutrients ratio optimization.
Kinetic parameters
- Kinetic parameters
For heterotrophic and autotrophic biomass. - SBR
Aeration cycle control in SBR systems.
Biomass carrier (MBBR)
Same applications as normal reactor + Amount of oxygen needs to maintain the biomass carriers under optimal conditions.
Support for simulation programs
Support for simulation programs
Such as GPS-X, BioWin, …
