Abstract

Aerobic Granular Sludge (AGS) has advantages over Activated sludge (AS) but faces challenges with long granulation periods. In this study, a novel grey-box model is devised to optimize the cultivation of AGS to shorten the formation time. This model is based on an existing white-box model. The modeling process starts with the application of four sensitivity analysis methods to assess the 12 model metrics selected. Subsequently, 12 prediction models were constructed by combining the six Machine learning (ML) algorithms and integrated algorithms, with the best performance selected (R = 0.98). Finally, an AGS selection pressure planning model was designed in conjunction with a simulated annealing (SA) algorithm to guide AGS training. The results demonstrate that AGS formation could be achieved within four days under the model's optimal control. Therefore, the establishment of this model provides a new technique for the cultivation of AGS.
