"Ready-to-run" STOAT models

Use of prebuilt STOAT models

As part of a project funded at the time by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research, standard models were developed in 2013 for sewage treatment plant designs commonly found in Germany. These models are fully executable under STOAT Version 5.0 and come with all required "ingredients". Because the website that the institutions involved in the project set up at the time for downloading the models is no longer accessible, I have now uploaded the models to my website. You can download all models free of charge. After downloading from the server and unpacking, you will have "ready-to-run" examples as model templates that you can adapt to your requirements in STOAT and use as a starting point for your own simulations.

The available plant types are shown in the table below. For each of these plant designs several models were created (see column Number of Works...). For each of these models a run was performed that can be invoked and reproduced after download. The table also shows the mathematical models used in the simulation.
