Dr. Takács, born Hungarian, naturalized Canadian, living in France, has done a similar circle in wastewater process modeling. As principal developer of GPS-X, BioWin and in the past eight years his own new Sumo process simulator at Dynamita, he has close to 40 years of experience in process modeling. Dr. Takács’ interests are widespread from nutrient removal and recovery to phase separation, main and sidestream treatment and energy-efficient technologies. He will lead the group through the development of a virtual wastewater treatment plant from BOD removal to nutrient recovery using the Sumo process simulator.
