Abstract

See full text

A method for wastewater treatment that comprises receiving influent readings from sensors located along influent stream(s) of a wastewater treatment unit, effluent readings from sensors located along effluent stream(s) of the wastewater treatment unit, a feedback flow variable calculated according to a state of a feedback flow channel between an effluent output and an influent input, analyzing the influent readings and the effluent readings to extract an influent flow variable, a total nitrogen at effluent variable and a total phosphorus at effluent variable, and calculating control instructions to control the wastewater treatment unit by assigning a combination of a cost variable reflecting a treatment cost for treating the influent stream(s), a time period, the influent flow variable, the total nitrogen at effluent variable, the total phosphorus at effluent variable, and the feedback flow variable in a state space of the wastewater treatment unit.
