Endogenous Respiration Rate Constant given Maximum Yield Coefficient Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Endogenous Respiration Constant = (Maximum Yield Coefficient*Specific Substrate Utilization Rate)-(1/Sludge Age)
K_e = (Y*U)-(1/θ_c)
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Endogenous Respiration Constant - (Measured in 1 Per Second) - Endogenous Respiration Constant is a rate constant that represents the rate of oxygen consumption due to the endogenous respiration of microorganisms in a biological treatment process.
Maximum Yield Coefficient - Maximum Yield Coefficient is the maximum mg of cells produced per mg organic matter removed.
Specific Substrate Utilization Rate - (Measured in 1 Per Second) - Specific Substrate Utilization Rate is the rate at which a microbial population consumes a substrate per unit of biomass present.
Sludge Age - (Measured in Second) - Sludge Age is the average time for which the particle of suspended solids remains in aeration.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Maximum Yield Coefficient: 0.5 --> No Conversion Required
Specific Substrate Utilization Rate: 0.5 1 Per Second --> 0.5 1 Per Second No Conversion Required
Sludge Age: 5 Day --> 432000 Second (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

K_e = (Y*U)-(1/θ_c) --> (0.5*0.5)-(1/432000)

Evaluating ... ...

What is Sludge Age?

The common range for sludge age for a conventional activated sludge plant is between 3 and 15 days. For extended aeration activated sludge plants the range is between about 15 and 30 days. Generally during the winter months, higher sludge ages are required to maintain a sufficient biological mass.
