Biological and energetic simulation of the wastewater treatment plant Aschersleben

In the context of this work a model of the wastewater treatment plant in Aschersleben was developed. The model includes the mechanical and biological treatment and the (fluctuating) energy demand of the most important energy consuming devices.

This project aimed for a verified model of the plant with a subsequent energetic optimization by considering the individual devices. The model was simulated with various optimization strategies and took into account the fluctuating load of the plant.
