Developing knowledge-based approaches for the start-up of full-scale

▪ Establishing a general decision-support tool (database) for the start-up of CSTR (step 1)
▪ Developing an approach for the optimization of the inoculation strategy of full-scale anaerobic digesters (step 2)

Database development

• How to validate the database?
• How to capture links between start-up duration and operational parameters
• How to extract hidden information in the database?
