Abstract: The availability of a simple discrete statistical model for describing transient behaviour of the activated sludge process is studied in this work. Two-step changes of substrate feed concentration using laboratory treatment plant data are examined. The model sensibility to the number of regression parameters is evaluated. It is shown that the model represents a good approximation of the behaviour of an activated sludge process for the process control purposes.
