Dissolved organic matter (DOM) is essential in biological treatment, yet its specific roles remain incompletely understood. This study introduces a machine learning (ML) framework to interpret DOM biodegradability in the anaerobic digestion (AD) of s...
Bound extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) are complex, high-molecular-weight polymer mixtures that play a critical role in pore clogging, foulants adhesion, and fouling layer formation during membrane filtration, owing to their adhesive properti...
Anaerobic biodegradation rates (half-lives) of organic chemicals are pivotal for environmental risk assessment and remediation. Traditional experimental evaluation, constrained by prolonged, oxygen-free conditions, struggles to keep pace with emergin...
Predicting thermodynamic adhesion energies was a critical strategy for mitigating membrane fouling. This study utilized a backpropagation (BP) neural network model to predict the thermodynamic adhesion energies associated with membrane fouling in a p...
This study aimed to clarify the statistical accuracy assessment approaches used in recent biogas prediction studies using state-of-the-art ensemble machine learning approach according to 10-fold cross-validation in 100 repetitions. Three thermally pr...
This study aims to enhance diagnostic capabilities for optimising the performance of the anaerobic sewage treatment lagoon at Melbourne Water's Western Treatment Plant (WTP) through a novel machine learning (ML)-based monitoring strategy. This strate...
Biochar is commonly used to enhance the anaerobic digestion of organic waste solids and wastewater, due to its electrochemical properties, which intensify the electron transfer of microorganisms attached to its large surface area. However, it is diff...
Biogas production through anaerobic digestion (AD) is one of the complex non-linear biological processes, wherein understanding its dynamics plays a crucial role towards process control and optimization. In this work, a machine learning based biogas ...
