COMPARISON OF METHODS FOR ESTIMATING CARBONACEOUS BOD PARAMETERS

摘要

The performance of seven different methods (Differential, Fujimoto, Thomas, Graphical, Integral, Log-Difference, and Nonlinear Regression) for estimating first-stage, carbonaceous biochemical oxygen demand (CBOD), curve parameters, Namely k and L_o, were compared using synthetic data generated by Monte Carbon simulation technique. The comparison of The methods was made based on their efficiency in retrieving the orginal values of k and L_o, which were selected to generate The synthetic data.
