Modeling interspecific competition of the microbial community during anaerobic digestion based on cellular automata and ADM1

Interspecific competition for substrate and space gives rise to considerable variation in biomass distribution within the microbial community. To study microbial community in depth, we used several research methods as sampling and analytical measurements, and developed a cellular automata (CA) model...
