Dynamita DYNAMIZU v26.0: Professional Wastewater Treatment Plant Simulator (ASM)

Dynamita DYNAMIZU is the world’s most advanced wastewater treatment plant simulator, implementing all major Activated Sludge Models (ASM1, ASM2d, ASM3, ASM2d + BioP, ASM2d + Anammox, ASM3 + BioP) plus secondary settling tank models (Takács, 1D), biological nutrient removal (BNR), and industrial pre-treatment. Version v26.0 continues Dynamita’s mission of delivering rigorous, mass-balance-based process simulation for engineers, researchers, and operators. Unlike simpler empirical models, DYNAMIZU uses fundamental biokinetics (Monod expressions) and physical transport to predict effluent quality (COD, N, P, SS), oxygen uptake rate (OUR), sludge production, and greenhouse gas emissions (N₂O). Whether designing a new membrane bioreactor, optimizing an existing nutrient removal plant, or researching Anammox for sidestream treatment, DYNAMIZU delivers the accuracy and flexibility that modern water quality engineering demands.

???? Secondary Settling & Clarifier Models

Clarifier Models:

  • Takács (1D) – 10 layers, hindered/compression settling
