Abstract
Abstract — This study presents the modelling of biological sulphate reduction in a heavy-metal laden acid mine drainage with high strength sulphate concentration. A simple dynamic model was utilised for the simulation of the biological sulphate reduction process in a continuously stirred tank reactor. The model developed described substrate utilisation via parameter estimation albeit, low description of biomass formed was obtained. The absolute relative sensitivity analysis of the parameters showed that the maximum specific growth rate of the biomass and the saturation constant were significant.
期刊介绍:
Střed | Centre is a peer-reviewed journal focused on studies of the society, culture and politics in Central Europe of the 19th and 20th centuries. The journal is ecumenical in its selected methodological and disciplinary approaches and strives to give space to scholars working on the broad field of social sciences and humanities, who are involved in studies of the given period and geographical area. Střed /Centre aims at interconnecting the extensive and simultaneously rather fragmented field of research dedicated to Central Europe from the viewpoint of various disciplines. Therefore it publishes original studies from individual fields, particularly studies with the ambition to step over the border defined by disciplinary divisions and to connect more disciplines in a productive dialogue. As a peer-rewieved journal Střed | Centre was founded on January 1, 2009 and is issued twice a year. It is oriented on monothematic issues presenting inter-related scientific essays. Topics of individual issues are published on the journal web page well in advance. Střed | Centre comes out twice a year, in April and October, and is included in the list of peer-reviewed non-impact periodicals issued in the Czech Republic.
