CONT

A further step towards greater accuracy is to estimate the intrinsic respiratory activity of the sludge by measuring it with a continuously-operating industrial respirometer instead of estimating the oxygen requirement of the tank (which includes the oxygen required to oxidize the substrate).

CONT

Un pas de plus peut être fait vers une précision plus grande en remplaçant l'estimation des besoins en oxygène du bassin (qui englobent ceux correspondant à l'oxydation du substrat) par celle de l'activité respiratoire intrinsèque des boues mesurées dans un respiromètre industriel fonctionnant en continu.
