Sewage sludge biochar (SSBC) has significant potential for resource recovery from sewage sludge (SS) and has been widely studied and applied across various fields. However, the variability in SSBC properties, resulting from the diverse nature of SS a...
To ensure operational efficiency, promote sustainable wastewater treatment practices, and maintain compliance with environmental regulations, it is crucial to evaluate the parameters of treated effluent in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). Artific...
Due to environmental concerns and economic value, the adsorption process using agricultural wastes is one of the promising methods to remove lead (Pb) from contaminated water. The relationships between agricultural waste properties, adsorption condit...
Energy intensity (EI) prediction in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) suffers from inaccuracy and non-interpretability due to poor data quality, complex mechanisms and various confounding variables. In this study, the novel hybrid variable cross la...
Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) generate vast amounts of water quality, operational, and biological data. The potential of these big data, particularly through machine learning (ML), to improve WWTP management is increasingly recognized. However,...
This study investigated the potential of machine learning (ML) as a substitute for polynomial regression in conventional response surface methodology (RSM) for decolorizing textile wastewater via a UV/HO process. While polynomial regression offers li...
Appropriate carbon source addition can save operational costs and reduce surplus sludge yield in the wastewater treatment plant (WWTP). However, the link between carbon source and surplus sludge yield remains neglected although machine learning (ML) ...

Wastewater treatment plants in Coimbatore South are under pressure from rapid urbanization, inadequate infrastructure, and industrial pollution, leading to environmental and public health concerns. This study aimed to identify suitable locations for ...
Accurate prediction of influent parameters such as chemical oxygen demand (COD) and biochemical oxygen demand over five days (BOD) is crucial for optimizing wastewater treatment processes, enhancing efficiency, and reducing costs. Traditional predict...
In the process of partial nitrification and anaerobic ammonia oxidation (anammox) for nitrogen removal, the process offers simple metabolic pathways, low operating costs, and high nitrogenous loading rates. However, since the partial nitrification-an...
