A structured model of substrate-utilization kinetics that encompasses dual-limitation conditions, caused by simultaneously low concentrations of the electron donor and the electron acceptor, is developed by incorporating the internal cofactor responses into the kinetic variables. The structured mode

## Abstract The reaction rates (__r__ and __r__) in the twoβstep nitrification reaction were measured in a fluidizedβsandβbed biofilm reactor under a range of steadyβstate conditions with respect to bulk NH, NO, and O~2~ concentrations. It was shown from theory and experiment that under low NH conc
The performance of an upflow packed-bed biofilm reactor has been analyzed under dual substrate limitation conditions. The numerical solution of the proposed equations defining the system has been obtained for a wide range of operating conditions for a case of practical significance involving glucose
The concentration of dissolved oxygen (DO) strongly influences the performance of aerobic biofilm reactors because organic oxidation is limited by the availability of oxygen. However, it is not necessary to maintain a high DO level in the reactors in order to overcome this limitation. Excessive aera
