Title: Intelligent identifying and self-healing control for municipal wastewater treatment

Abstract: As an effective way to realize water resources recycling, the municipal wastewater treatment is the significant strategy of national comprehensive utilization of water resources. Meanwhile, the intelligent identifying and self-healing control method for municipal wastewater treatment is the core technology to ensure the safe and efficient operating conditions. This report will discuss the intelligent identifying and self-healing control technology for municipal wastewater treatment based on data and knowledge, and will design the intelligent identifying system to solve the problems of frequent occurrence of abnormal conditions, effluent exceed the standard, and so on. The main topics are as follows: the data mining and knowledge inference methods will be developed to realize the online identification of abnormal operating conditions. The intelligent warning methods, based on the data and knowledge, will be proposed for the abnormal conditions. Moreover, the intelligent warning model will be established to realize the abnormal conditions online. Furthermore, the self-healing control theory will be discussed to achieve the effective suppression of abnormal mode. Finally, an intelligent identifying system which will be designed and used in the real municipal wastewater treatment plants, to ensure the emissions compliance and reduce the incidence of abnormal conditions.
