Supervisory Control System for Adaptive Phase and Work Cycle Management of Sequencing Wastewater Treatment Plant

چکیده
The paper presents the design of the integrated control system applied to Sequencing Batch Reactor (SBR) in a biological Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) in Swarzewo, which operates under activated sludge technology. Based on the real data records, ASM2d biological processes model and aeration system model, hierarchical control system for dissolved oxygen tracking and cycle management is designed. Internal Model Controller (IMC) was applied to control the air flow at the lower control level. Higher level dissolved oxygen controller is based on Direct Model Reference Adaptive Control (DMRAC) method. The supervisory system performs management of reactor work cycle, determines the phase length, controls sludge age, calculates setpoint of dissolved oxygen and adapts parameters of the lower control layer. Proposed control system allowed to: increase the efficiency, improve the quality of outflow and reduce the cost of aeration and chemical treatment plant, in relation to existing solutions in case study plant.

Evaluation of sequencing batch reactor performance for petrochemical wastewater treatment
Sequencing batch reactor (SBR) technology has found many applications in industrial wastewater treatment in recent years. The aim of this study was to determine the optimal time for a cycle of the sequencing batch reactor (SBR) and evaluate the performance of a SBR for petrochemical wastewater treatment in that cycle time. The reactor was operated with a suspended biomass configuration under ae...
متن کاملEnhancement of Robust Tracking Performance via Switching Supervisory Adaptive Control
When the process is highly uncertain, even linear minimum phase systems must sacrifice desirable feedback control benefits to avoid an excessive ‘cost of feedback’, while preserving the robust stability. In this paper, the problem of supervisory based switching Quantitative Feedback Theory (QFT) control is proposed for the control of highly uncertain plants. According to this strategy, the unce...
