自2002年国际水协厌氧消化工艺数学模型课题组推出厌氧消化模型ADM1以来,随着研究与应用的深入,该模型不断发展完善,已经被证明是指导厌氧消化工艺设计与模拟、预测厌氧消化过程及结果的可靠工具。总结了近年ADM1在生化反应动力学、不同反应器类型、不同发酵底物、厌氧消化微生物种群等方面的拓展与改进研究,简单介绍了该模型在厌氧消化实际工程中的应用及模型存在的缺陷和不足。“,”The Anaerobic Digestion Model No. 1 （ADM1） was published by IWA task group for mathematical modeling of anaerobic digestion processes in 2002. With the advanced research and widely implementation, ADM1 has become a reliable tool for design of anaerobic digestion, simulation and forecast of anaerobic digestion process and results. This paper summarized the extended and improved research on ADM1 of biochemistry reaction kinetics, different reactors, diverse feedstock and microbiology population which affected the accuracy and feasibility of ADM1, it also introduced the implementation and defects of ADM1 simply.
