Title: Anaerobic Digester Question(s)
Post by: caeastman on July 24, 2012, 01:11:16 AM
Hi! I am working on my Masters dissertation and need to determine an appropriate flow rate so that I can calculated the digester size.

The WWTP has a 16.4 MLD capacity, and I would like the organic loading rate to be 2.9 kg VSS/m3 (with 80% from sewege and 20% from MSW).

Also, if anyone has any insight into CHP technology -- i.e., what capacity would be ideal given the above parameters, any and all relevant input would be greatly appreciated!!
