Abstract

Results of a comprehensive study are reported for wastewater characterization in relation to modelling and design of biological nutrient removal systems for the Metropolitan Area of Istanbul. Domestic sewage quality was experimentally assessed in terms of major polluting parameters. Size distribution and calculation of significant ratios such as BOD₅:COD and COD:N were used to evaluate the merit of candidate physical, chemical and biological treatment alternatives. COD fractionation was effected to assess biological treatability and to yield the necessary process components to the recent modelling approaches.
