Abstract
In this paper, a local sensitivity analysis was performed using one at time technique (OAT) on the parameters of the mathematical model for the composting process. An integrated mathematical model for composting process was used, in which kinetic parameters and the reaction order was estimated. The values of the absolute and relative sensitivity of the specified parameters are calculated. The following dynamic variables were selected as the objectives functions for sensitivity analysis: the mass of organic matter at the end of the process, the minimum amount of oxygen, the maximum amount of carbon dioxide and the maximum substrate temperature. The sensitivity analysis showed that the variations of the parameters mostly affect the amount of carbon dioxide, and at least the substrate temperature, and that the most sensitive parameter is the reaction order. ANOVA analysis (one-way and two-way) showed a statistically significant difference between experimental data.
