Implementation and automation of a sequencing batch reactor with a logo-oba6 programmable low-cost controller

ABSTRACT: This paper summarizes the results obtained in the implementation and automation of a sequencing batch reactor (SBR). First, the operating principle and the justification of the use of this type of reactor, as well as its applications, are explained. Subsequently, the design of both hardware and software for the automatic operation of the reactors is described, emphasizing the features and limitations of this type of system. Additionally, a formal design technique (petri networks) is used to develop a program that allows versatile, reliable and user-friendly operation, although it requires special programming strategies. Finally, the analysis, results, and conclusions are presented.
