Yield coefficient - Yield coefficient is defined as ratio of VSS to BOD.
Volatile Solids produced - (Measured in Kilogram per Second) - Volatile solids produced is defined in terms of mass flow rate.
Mean Cell Residence Time - (Measured in Second) - Mean Cell Residence Time is the average time that the sludge remains in the reactor.
Endogenous coefficient - (Measured in 1 Per Second) - Endogenous coefficient is used for designing a complete-mix activated-sludge system.
BOD in - (Measured in Kilogram per Second) - BOD in means the amount of dissolved oxygen enter anaerobic digester.
BOD out - (Measured in Kilogram per Second) - BOD out means the amount of dissolved oxygen exits anaerobic digester.
