Popis:	A real metropolitan wastewater treatment plant (RWWTP) serving a population equivalent of 1.55 million was modeled to reduce energy consumption and carbon footprint (CFP). An approach was proposed to handle the dilution factor and partial aeration due to discontinuous air diffuser locations in the Bardenpho-5 configuration. Various operational, structural, and configurational modifications were evaluated. Results indicated that management scenarios might provide conflicting outcomes for different targets. Reduced energy consumption may not result in lower CFP at the same time. Moreover, operational changes that would impact total nitrogen (TN) concentrations and N
