Abstract-Riqqa plant, the second largest wastewater treatment plant in Kuwait, has lately shown signs of working under unstable conditions. The Kuwait Institute for Scientific Research has conducted a study to evaluate the plant performance and to pin-point the probable causes of the problem. To achieve these objectives, the Riqqa activated sludge system was modelled using activated sludge model No. 1 (ASM1) in SIMBA simulation package. It was the first time to use ASM1 to model a full-scale activated sludge system in Kuwait. This paper presents the calibration of ASM1 to carbon and nitrogen removals of the Riqqa activated sludge system, using long-term routinely measured wastewater quality parameters. Repirometery analysis was used to help in chemical oxygen demand (COD) fractionation and for providing initial guess values for the calibrated parameters. Validation results showed reasonable agreement between the measured and simulated COD, NH 4 -N and NO 3 -N over long-term dynamic simulation. The developed model was then used to evaluate and diagnose the system performance. The values of ASM1 parameters obtained will be useful in modelling other activated sludge systems in the country.

“…Computer simulations to analyse and understand complex phenomena have been applied in several research disciplines including Automation [1], Economics [2], Social Sciences [3] and Environmental Sciences [4]. The success in the use of simulations within these research areas relies on the feasibility to play with the behaviour of the modelled phenomenon under study by changing the conditions of its environment and its internal parameters to observe the consequences in a controlled experiment.…”

Abstract. This paper presents a summary of relevant research findings that have been used as the theoretical background in the design of an agent-based model to simulate the human behaviour within work teams (the TEAKS model). It underlines some of the main trends in the modelling of human behaviour in teams, and the rationale for selecting the attributes to represent real team candidates as software agents in the TEAKS model.
