Accumulation of fat, oil and grease (FOG) in the sumps of wastewater pumping stations is a common failure cause for these facilities. Floating solids are often not transported by the pump suction inlets and the individual solids can accumulate to sti...
Monitoring fouling behavior for better understanding and control has recently gained increasing attention. However, there is no practical method for observing membrane fouling in real time, especially in the forward osmosis (FO) process. In this arti...
This study investigates a novel hybrid configuration of an osmotic membrane bioreactor-clarifier (OMBRC) to achieve the simultaneous reduction of salt accumulation and membrane fouling. Compared with the conventional OMBR, the OMBRC demonstrated 14 t...
This study aims to demonstrate the application of deep learning to quantitatively describe long-term full-scale data observed from wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) from the perspectives of process modeling, process analysis, and forecasting modeli...
We have developed artificial neural network (ANN) based models for simulating two application examples of hydrodynamic cavitation (HC) namely, biomass pre-treatment to enhance biogas and degradation of organic pollutants in water. The first case repo...
Application of machine-learning methods to assess the batch adsorption of malachite green (MG) dye on chitosan/polyvinyl alcohol/zeolite imidazolate frameworks membrane adsorbents (CPZ) was investigated in this study. Our previous research results pr...

Many indicators are involved in monitoring water quality. For instance, the fecal indicator bacteria are extremely important to detect the water quality. For this purpose, to better predict the total coliforms at the outlet of a Multi-Soil-Layering (...
Data-driven models are suitable for simulating biological wastewater treatment processes with complex intrinsic mechanisms. However, raw data collected in the early stage of biological experiments are normally not enough to train data-driven models. ...
