Modeling Greenhouse Gas Emissions in a Full-Scale Activated Sludge Unit Based on Benchmark Simulation Model – A Case Study of Isfahan Wastewater Treatment Plant by Hamidreza Shiran, Gholamreza Nabi Bidhendi, Nasser Mehrdadi

“…The refined model was utilized in a case study at the Isfahan Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) in Iran to assess various operational strategies and explore potential challenges related to emission management.Results: The simulation results, based on the model’s structural assumptions, indicate a negative impact on greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions associated with regional energy upgrades in the ventilation system and activated sludge sector. For example, variations in the biogenic and non-biogenic CO2​ proportions were observed when the total suspended solids (TSS) removal efficiency was altered, decreasing or increasing to 30/70 and 20/80, respectively. …”
