| Zusammenfassung: | Membrane aerated biofilm reactors (MABRs) are a promising biological wastewater treatment technology, whose industrial applications have dramatically accelerated in the last five years. Increased popularity and fast industrial adaptation are coupled with increased needs to monitor, optimize, and control MABRs with available online sensors. Observations of commercial scale MABR installations have shown a distinctive and repetitive pattern relating oxygen purity in MABR exhaust gas to reactor ammonia concentrations. This provides an obvious opportunity for process monitoring and control which this paper investigates with the help of modeling. The relationship plots between the bulk ammonia concentration and the oxygen purity are defined as MABR fingerprint plots, which are described in the form of steady-state curves and dynamic trajectories. This study systematically investigated, analyzed, and explained the behaviors and connections of steady-state curves and dynamic trajectories with a MABR model in SUMO®, and proposed a hypothesis about utilizing the MABR fingerprint plots to characterize MABR system performance, identify the limiting factor of biofilms, and possibly develop a soft senor for MABR biofilm thickness monitoring and control |
