Anaerobic Digestion Model applied to the anaerobic co-digestion of sewage sludge, macroalgae and crude glycerol

The anaerobic digestion model no.1 (ADM1) was applied to simulate three anaerobic bioreactors degrading sewage sludge, macroalgae and crude glycerol. In brief, ADM1 describes the different steps of AD: disintegration, hydrolysis, acidogenesis, acetogenesis, and methanogenesis (Batstone et al., 2002), and considers 26 state variables and 19 biochemical reactions associated with 7 bacterial populations. More details about model description and model parameters can be found in Batstone et al., (2002) and Rosen and Jeppsson, (2006). The present data set provides the initial conditions files and the input files for the ADM1 Matlab/Simulink implementation proposed by Rosen and Jeppsson, (2006).
