In this study, the results of all respirometric tests revealed that
the OUR evolution patterns could be distinguished by the storage
phase and growth phase using the reported method (Karahan-Gül
et al., 2002). Fig. 3 presents an example of OUR evolution pattern in
a case of feeding F/M ratio of 0.1 (the case of O1 sludge). In the same
way, OUR evolution in other testes have been also analyzed (data
not shown). Integrating the sufficient OUR results, key kinetic and
stoichiometric parameters for establishing ASM3 could be evaluated
and their corresponding values are shown in
