A new approach for modeling dry deposition velocity of particles
2018
Abstract The dry deposition process is recognized as an important pathway among the various removal processes of pollutants in the atmosphere. In this field, there are several models reported in the literature useful to predict the dry deposition velocity of particles of different diameters but many of them are not capable of representing dry deposition phenomena for several categories of pollutants and deposition surfaces. Moreover, their applications is valid for specific conditions and if the data in that application meet all of the assumptions required of the data used to define the model. In this paper a new dry deposition velocity model based on an electrical analogy schema is propose…
Development of an aerobic digestion model for the assessment of greenhouse gases production (AeDMG1): Calibration and validation
2015
The increasing interest in greenhouse gas emissions from WWTPs has been leading to new tools for their designing and managing. The activated sludge models have been modified in order to consider on – site emissions from nitrification and denitrification, in particular. The biological nitrogen removal processes have been mainly assessing due to nitrous oxide (N2O) production as intermediate. The IPCC suggests that N2O contributes to climate change because it has a global warming potential 298-fold stronger than carbon dioxide. Even if the mathematical modelling is wide regarding the activated sludge models for greenhouse gases, a model for aerobic digestion is still not available. In this pa…
