A dynamic model of the activated sludge process was used to analyze and optimize the operation of an SBR treating slaughterhouse wastewater. The existing treatment cycle (duration of fill, aeration, and mix, decanting and wasting periods) was found to be inadequate for meeting effluent requirements under a number of different loading scenarios. Modeling analysis indicated that the aeration phase was too long and the settling phase too short. Simulation of a new SBR cycle operation, in which the superfluous time in the aeration phase was distributed to the settling phase and a new anoxic phase, confirmed that the unit could meet the stringent effluent requirements. Using an iterative approach, optimal cycle settings were determined for each of the loading and temperature scenarios investigated.
