The aim of this paper is to describe the state-of-the art computer-based techniques for data
analysis to improve operation of wastewater treatment plants. A comprehensive review of …

The background to this research is that across the world there will be 200,000 tonnes of
wind turbine blade waste to be disposed of each year from 2033. The purpose of the …

Criteria weights determined from pairwise comparisons are often the greatest contributor to
the uncertainties in the AHP-based multi-criteria decision making (MCDM). During an …

The objective of this paper is to use plant-wide modeling to assess the net impacts of varying
sludge management strategies. Special emphasis is placed on effluent quality, operational …

Global sensitivity analysis (GSA) is a powerful tool for quantifying the effects of model
parameters on the performance outputs of engineering systems, such as wastewater …

Three global sensitivity analysis (GSA) methods are applied and compared to assess the
most relevant processes occurring in wastewater treatment systems. In particular, the …

The objective of this paper is to show the results of an industrial project dealing with
modelling of anaerobic digesters. A multi-scale mathematical approach is developed to …

Activated sludge models are widely used to simulate, optimize and control performance of
wastewater treatment plants (WWTP). For simulation of nutrient removal and energy …

The objective of this paper is to demonstrate the full-scale feasibility of the
phenomenological dynamic influent pollutant disturbance scenario generator (DIPDSG) that …

Optimal operating systems have been widely employed to improve the economic and
environmental performance of wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) for efficiently treating …
