Intelligent monitoring for quality control in a biological nutrient removal wastewater treatment pilot plant

摘要

The conflicting demands for tighter environmental quality control on wastewater treatment plants while striving to lower operating costs has lead Sydney Water Corporation to embark on a `cruasde' to understand biological nutrient removal (BNR) processes and develop novel process control strategies to leverage this knowledge. The GIRD Novel Process Control Project is a collaborative attempt to demonstrate this on a pilot scale. An important feature of developing such technology is the implementation of `intelligent monitoring'.
