Quantity of Volatile Solids Produced Formula


Equation for calculate quantity of volatile solids produced is,

Px = Y[(BODin) - (BODout)] / 1 - kdθc

where,
  • kd - endogenous coefficient (d–1)
  • θc - mean cell residence time (d)
  • BOD - Biochemical oxygen demand
  • Y - yield coefficient
  • Px - volatile solids produced
