Coagulation and flocculation are two main processes used to integrate colloidal particles into larger particles and are two main stages of primary water treatment. Coagulation and flocculation processes are only needed when colloidal particles are a ...
Polymer-assisted flocculation-dewatering of mineral processing tailings (MPT) is crucial for its environmental disposal. To reduce the number of laboratory experiments, this study proposes a novel and hybrid machine learning (ML) method for the predi...

This study examined the modelling and optimisation of the electrocoagulation-flocculation (ECF) recovery of aquaculture effluent (AQE) using aluminium electrodes. The response surface methodology (RSM), artificial neural network (ANN), and adaptive n...
In water treatment processes (WTPs), artificial intelligence (AI) based techniques, particularly machine learning (ML) models have been increasingly applied in decision-making activities, process control and optimization, and cost management. At leas...
In sludge dewatering of most wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs), the dose of polymer flocculant is manually adjusted through direct visual inspection of the flocs without the aid of any instruments. Although there is a demand for the development of ...
The functionality of activated sludge in wastewater treatment processes depends largely on the structural and microbial composition of its flocs, which are complex assemblages of microorganisms and their secretions. However, monitoring these flocs in...
Coal mines are one of the largest sources of energy supply and generate significant volumes of wastewater. Chemical coagulation is one of the most effective methods for wastewater treatment. In this research, ferric and aluminum-based coagulants, alo...
Optimizing the dosage of coagulant is a time-consuming process, and real-time evaluation of floc settling velocity can quickly predict the coagulation effect and optimize the dosage. This study used a convolutional neural network (CNN) model to analy...
