The goal of this thesis was testing different reactor configurations in order to analyze the influence of varying parameters on these systems. The three elaborately tested CASR reactors (Conventional Activated Sludge Reactor) are an oxygen limited partial nitritation reactor, an Anammox reactor and a combination of partial nitritation and Anammox in one single reactor. All three were tested under different parameter settings of temperature, pH, biomass retention, nitrogen load, COD and HRT (Hydraulic Retention Time). The software program WEST® (MOSTforWATER) was used to obtain the results of this modeling study.
