Box 1301, FIN-02044 VTT Finland Jouni.Savolainen@vtt.fi Abstract The purpose of this paper is to describe the design and implementation of a dynamic simulation model of a rotary disc filter to the APMS simulation environment. The construction and operation of a disc filter is described. The APMS simulation platform is introduced. The calculation principles and methods used in the model are described. The test runs and their results as well as the conclusions are presented. The model was found to r
