As a part of the Virtual Plant£ project, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling is applied on full scale water treatment
processes to improve water quality, to optimize the existing or test new designs. Single and two-phase
flow patterns are modeled for the clarification step (solid-liquid separation) and the
disinfection step (ozonation, chlorination and ultraviolet (UV)) applications. As a review of different CFD
techniques in water treatment, each process and the respective CFD model are detailed. The
objective is the assessment of the process mechanism, in particular the floc transport in the solid-liquid
separation, the oxidation by ozone and by chlorine in the corresponding tanks and also the
inactivation dose received in a UV process. Includes 20 references, figures.
