Portable Respirometer SN6
Real-Time Process Control and Optimization
The SN6 is a portable respirometer designed for in situ monitoring of the health status of autotrophic and heterotrophic bacteria, as well as effluent monitoring. For this purpose, the SN6 is equipped with oxygen, temperature, pH and ORP probes.
Tests and Parameters
By means of the SN-6 respirometer, the following tests are performed, which provide the following parameters automatically:
- TEST OUR (Global Respirometry): OUR, SOUR.
- AUR TEST (Nitrification rate): AUR, SAUR.
- TOX TEST (Toxicity): % Inhibition
- DENITRIFICATION TEST: NUR
- COD TEST (COD fractionation) : biodegradable COD and rapidly biodegradable COD
With these variables, the SICAIR algorithm calculates the volume of oxygen that the bacteria need at each moment and with the technical data of the blowers, the minutes of operation of the blowers are calculated.
Applications
- TOXICITY. Spill detection.
- Advanced Aeration Control
- Optimization of the DESNITRIFICATION
- Optimization of NITRIFICATION
- Optimization of PLANTS WITH DILUTION EFFECTS
Inconvenient Active Sludge Process
- slow dynamics, making it difficult to make decisions when problems arise. Whatever action is taken, its effects on the process will not become clear for a few days.
- This fact makes it especially relevant, on the one hand, to detect problems as early as possible and, on the other hand, to make the right decisions from the first moment. However, it is not possible to evaluate the biological process with physical or chemical measurements, direct information of the biomass and the effect of the wastewater to be treated on it is needed, as the SENSARA respirometers do.
