Fuzzy comprehensive evaluation of multiple environmental factors for swine building assessment and control.

Journal of hazardous materials
In confined swine buildings, temperature, humidity, and air quality are all important for animal health and productivity. However, the current swine building environmental control is only based on temperature; and evaluation and control methods based...

A prediction model of ammonia emission from a fattening pig room based on the indoor concentration using adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system.

Journal of hazardous materials
Ammonia (NH) is considered one of the significant pollutions contributor to indoor air quality and odor gas emission from swine house because of the negative impact on the health of pigs, the workers and local environment. Prediction models could pro...

Achieving partial nitrification by inhibiting the activity of Nitrospira-like bacteria under high-DO conditions in an intermittent aeration reactor.

Journal of environmental sciences (China)
It is generally accepted that a low dissolved oxygen (DO) concentration is more beneficial for achieving partial nitrification than high-DO. In this study, partial nitrification was not established under low-DO conditions in an intermittent aeration ...

Artificial Intelligence for the Evaluation of Operational Parameters Influencing Nitrification and Nitrifiers in an Activated Sludge Process.

Microbial ecology
Nitrification at a full-scale activated sludge plant treating municipal wastewater was monitored over a period of 237 days. A combination of fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) were use...

Evidence of Water Quality Degradation in Lower Mekong Basin Revealed by Self-Organizing Map.

PloS one
To reach a better understanding of the spatial variability of water quality in the Lower Mekong Basin (LMB), the Self-Organizing Map (SOM) was used to classify 117 monitoring sites and hotspots of pollution within the basin identified according to wa...

Modeling of ammonia emission in the USA and EU countries using an artificial neural network approach.

Environmental science and pollution research international
Ammonia emissions at the national level are frequently estimated by applying the emission inventory approach, which includes the use of emission factors, which are difficult and expensive to determine. Emission factors are therefore the subject of es...

A myocardial reorientation method based on feature point detection for quantitative analysis of PET myocardial perfusion imaging.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
OBJECTIVE: Reorienting cardiac positron emission tomography (PET) images to the transaxial plane is essential for cardiac PET image analysis. This study aims to design a convolutional neural network (CNN) for automatic reorientation and evaluate its ...

Intelligent FA/FNA alternating strategy for nitrite-oxidizing bacteria inhibition: Data-driven prediction and process control.

Journal of environmental management
Alternating treatment with free ammonia (FA) and free nitrous acid (FNA) is an effective strategy to inhibit nitrite-oxidizing bacteria (NOB) in partial nitrification (PN) process. However, the current alternating treatment relies on manual assessmen...

Energy saving for air supply in a real WWTP: application of a fuzzy logic controller.

Water science and technology : a journal of the International Association on Water Pollution Research
An unconventional cascade control system, for the regulation of air supply in activated sludge wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs), was tested. The dissolved oxygen (DO) set point in the aeration tank was dynamically calculated based on effluent ammo...
