Model Predictive Control of Wastewater Treatment Plants: application to the BSM1 Benchmark
نویسندگان
چکیده
Linear Quadratic Dynamic Matrix Control has been applied to the Benchmark Simulation Model 1 (BSM1) wastewater treatment plant to maintain the effluent quality within regulations-specified limits. Good performance was achieved under steady influent characteristics, especially concerning the nitrogen-related species. In presence of influent disturbances the behavior was less satisfactory but the addition of a feedforward action based on the measurement of the influent flowrate improves the performance.

Performance Comparison of Predictive Controllers in Optimal and Stable Operation of Wastewater Treatment Plants
Any proper operation could be translated as a constrained optimization problem inside a WWTP, whose nonlinear behavior renders its control problems quite attractive for performance of multivariable optimization–based control technique algorithms, such as NMPC. The main advantage of this control technique lies in its ability to handle model nonlinearity as well as various types of constraints on...

متن کاملOptimal Control of Wastewater Treatment Plants Using Economic-Oriented Model Predictive Dynamic Strategies
This paper addresses the implementation of economic-oriented model predictive controllers for the dynamic real-time optimization of the operation of wastewater treatment plants (WWTP). Both the economic-optimizing controller (pure-EMPC) and the economic-oriented tracking controller (Hybrid-EMPC, or HEMPC) formulations are validated in the benchmark simulation model (BSM1) platform that represen...
متن کاملJoint Environmental and Economical Analysis of Wastewater Treatment Plants Control Strategies: A Benchmark Scenario Analysis
In this paper, a joint environmental and economic analysis of different Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) control strategies is carried out. The assessment is based on the application of the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) as a method to evaluate the environmental impact and the Benchmark Simulation Model No. 1 (BSM1). The BSM1 is taken as the benchmark scenario used to implement the control strate...
متن کاملEnergy and Environmental Efficiency for the N-Ammonia Removal Process in Wastewater [1.0]Treatment Plants by Means of Reinforcement Learning
Currently, energy and environmental efficiency are critical aspects in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). In fact, WWTPs are significant energy consumers, especially in the active sludge process (ASP) for the N-ammonia removal. In this paper, we face the challenge of simultaneously improving the economic and environmental performance by using a reinforcement learning approach. This approach i...
