Detailed modelling of greenhouse gas emissions from wastewater treatment plants using integrated computational fluid dynamics and biokinetic models

This research will enable the modeling of nitrous oxide emissions from wastewater treatment plants using integrated CFD and biokinetic models. A reduced model (compartmental model) will be developed still yielding more realistic model predictions compared to current state-of-the-art models. Compartmental model will be used to develop mitigation strategies for nitrous oxide emissions.
