Anaerobic digestion (AD) is a mature technology that relies upon a synergistic effort of a
diverse group of microbial communities for metabolizing diverse organic substrates …

Sustainability has been defined as the concept of meeting the needs of the present without
compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs [1]. Other definitions …

This paper proposes a risk assessment model for settling problems of microbiological origin
in activated sludge systems (filamentous bulking, foaming and rising sludge). The aim of the …

As the work of the IWA Task Group on Benchmarking of Control Strategies for wastewater
treatment plants (WWTPs) is coming to an end, it is essential to disseminate the knowledge …

BACKGROUND: Treatment and disposal of Korean food waste encounter technical
difficulties due to a high‐salt problem. In order to increase methane production from food …

Continuous monitoring of water quality creates huge amounts of data and therefore requires
new concepts to guarantee high data quality and to prevent data graveyards. Monitoring …

This paper introduces the modelling, simulation of anaerobic digestion process for biogas
production from organic waste. Insight on the relevant model parameters is obtained by …

Abstract Information fusion methods based on Dempster-Shafer evidence theory (DST) have
been widely used in fault diagnosis. In DST-based methods, the monitoring information …

The objective of this study was to develop an advanced control system for optimizing the
performance of fixed-bed anaerobic reactors. The controller aimed at maximizing the bio …

This study investigates the use of Fourier transform near infrared (FT-NIR) spectroscopy
combined with principle components analysis (PCA) and partial least squares regression …
