Integrated real-time control (RTC) concepts, which are trying to operate drainage systems and WWTPs depending on the current capacities of both systems, are becoming more and more important. While almost all publications in this field have been concentrating on continuous flow systems, this paper will present a project which has been initiated to realise an integrated RTC strategy for a Sequencing Batch Reactor (SBR) plant in simulation as well as in full-scale. The results of the simulation are that SBR plants can handle high hydraulic loads. The cost–benefit analysis shows that an integrated operation is reasonable concerning environmental and economic aspects. In order to verify the simulation results, full-scale operation has been started in January 2004. The first results seem to confirm the results of the simulation study.

This paper presents results of a research project, in which a process-dependent real-time control (RTC) strategy for a sequencing batch reactor plant was realised in full-scale. The cycle controller is based on NH4 analysers, NO3 probes, TSS probes and sludge level probes. With this new RTC strategy it was possible to increase the treatment capacity by 50%. By implementation of the new controller the TN, TP and NH4-N treatment efficiency could be improved significantly, too. The treatment efficiency concerning COD is comparable.

A sequencing batch reactor was employed to treat ammonia wastewater, the pH, DO and OUR were adopted to monitor the start of short-cut nitrification. The results showed that the start of short-cut nitrification was achieved in 31days, ammonia consumption rate was higher than 90% and nitrite accumulation rate was higher than 85%, when pH, DO and OUR were applied to monitor and determine the aeration time, under the condition of temperature was 30°C. With ammonia shock loading conditions, OUR curve couldn’t indicate the end of short-cut nitrification exactly. But real-time control using pH and DO could achieve a stable shortcut nitrification under steady stage and ammonia load shocking stage.
