In a cooperative optimal control system, firstly, two-level models are established to capture the dynamic features of different time-scale performance indices. Secondly, a data-driven assisted model based cooperative optimization algorithm is developed to optimize the two-level models, so that the optimal set-points of dissolved oxygen and nitrate nitrogen can be acquired. Thirdly, a predictive control strategy is designed to trace the obtained optimal set-points of dissolved oxygen and nitrate nitrogen. This proposed cooperative optimal control system can effectively deal with the difficulties of formulating the dynamic features and acquiring the optimal set-points.

A total nitrogen intelligent detection system based on multi-objective optimized fuzzy neural network belongs to both the field of environment engineer and control engineer. The total nitrogen in wastewater treatment process is an important index to measure the quality of effluent. However, it is extremely difficult to detect the total nitrogen concentration due to the long detection time and the low prediction accuracy in the wastewater treatment process. To solve the problem, multi-objective optimized fuzzy neural network with global optimization capability may be established to optimize the structure and parameters to solve the problem of the poor generalization ability of fuzzy neural network. The experimental results show that total nitrogen intelligent detection system can automatically collect the variables information of wastewater treatment process and predict total nitrogen concentration. Meanwhile, in this system, the detection method can improve the prediction accuracy, as well as ensure the total nitrogen concentration be obtained in real-time and low-cost.

Under conventional techniques, wastewater treatment has many problems such as poor production conditions, serious random interference, strong nonlinear behavior, large time-varying, and serious lagging. These problems cause difficulty in detecting wastewater treatment parameters such as biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) values that are used to monitor water quality. To solve problems associated with monitoring BOD values in real-time, the present disclosure utilizes a self-organizing recurrent RBF neural network designed for intelligent detecting of BOD values. Implementations of the present disclosure build a computing model of BOD values based on the self-organizing recurrent RBF neural network to achieve real-time and more accurate detection of the BOD values (e.g., a BOD concentration). The implementations herein quickly and accurately obtain BOD concentrations and improve the quality and efficiency of wastewater treatment.

An intelligent identification method of sludge bulking based on type-2 fuzzy-neural-network belongs to the field of intelligent detection technology. The sludge volume index (SVI) in wastewater treatment plant is an important index to measure the sludge bulking of activated sludge process. However, poor production conditions and serious random interference in sewage treatment process are characterized by strong coupling, large time-varying and serious hysteresis, which makes the detection of SVI concentration of sludge volume index extremely difficult.
