Optimization of sewage treatment processes: Process control based on artificial intelligence

Abstract. The optimization of sewage treatment processes is critical for improving efficiency and reducing energy consumption. This paper explores the application of machine learning and artificial intelligence algorithms in optimizing key processes such as aeration, sedimentation, and filtration. By leveraging real-time monitoring and adaptive control, these algorithms can dynamically adjust operational parameters to enhance treatment efficiency and minimize energy usage. This study provides detailed insights into the implementation and benefits of AI-driven process control in sewage treatment, supported by case studies and data analysis. The findings indicate significant improvements in treatment performance, showcasing the transformative potential of AI in environmental engineering.
