Surveillance of SARS-CoV-2 RNA in wastewater treatment plants in Türkiye, Istanbul: a long-term study and statistical analysis.

Environmental monitoring and assessment
Wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) is a powerful method that allows community surveillance to identify diseases/pandemic dynamics in a city, especially in metropolitan areas with high overpopulation. This study investigated the detection and quantif...

Challenges on the implementation of wastewater-based epidemiology as a prediction tool: the paradigm of SARS-CoV-2.

The Science of the total environment
Wastewater Based Epidemiology (WBE) has been identified as a tool for monitoring and predicting patterns of SARS-CoV-2 in communities. Several factors may lead to a day-to-day variation in the measurement of viral genetic material. Wastewater samples...

Novel approach for AI-based NO emission reduction in biological wastewater treatment relying on genetic algorithms and neural networks.

Water science and technology : a journal of the International Association on Water Pollution Research
The potential of measurement-based control strategies for achieving lower NO emissions in biological wastewater treatment is limited due to strong temporal variations in NO emissions and a lack of measurement data regarding influencing parameters. To...

Data assimilation for prediction of ammonium in wastewater treatment plant: From physical to data driven models.

Water research
This study compares various modeling approaches to predict ammonium concentration in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs), with a focus on integrating data assimilation techniques. It explores white-box, grey-box, and black-box models, evaluating thei...

Introduction to WBE case estimation: A practical toolset for public health practitioners.

The Science of the total environment
Public health practitioners can use wastewater data to grasp disease dynamics, including incidence, prevalence, and potential disease trajectory. The expertise required to analyze and interpret wastewater data exceed those of most entry-level epidemi...

Model-driven high-throughput zebrafish embryo assay for evaluating whole effluent toxicity variation across 100 full-scale wastewater treatment plants.

Water research
The zebrafish embryo is a valuable model for evaluating whole effluent toxicity (WET). However, the widely recognized acute toxicity indicator, based on International Organization of Standardization (ISO) methods, requires large numbers of embryos an...

Novel PVDF mixed matrix membranes incorporated with green synthesized magnesium oxide nanoparticles for enhanced dye removal: Optimization using RSM, SOLVER, and ANN approach.

Environmental research
The application of nanofiltration membrane technology for removing pollutant dyes from industrial wastewater represents a significant advance in environmental remediation. This research explores the development and performance evaluation of a novel P...

Machine learning for monitoring per- and polyfluoroalkyl substance (PFAS) in California's wastewater treatment plants: An assessment of occurrence and fate.

Journal of hazardous materials
Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are significant sources of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) pollution, but comprehensive monitoring and management are impractical and cost-prohibitive. To strengthen monitoring programs, we developed mac...

Effective evaluation of greenhouse gases (GHGs) emissions from anoxic/oxic (A/O) process of regenerated papermaking wastewater treatment through hybrid deep learning techniques: Leveraging the critical role of water quality indicators.

Journal of environmental management
Accurate accounting of greenhouse gases (GHGs) emissions from industrial wastewater treatment processes/plants with high organic concentration and fluctuating inflows is crucial for the calculation and management of carbon emissions. The impacts of w...

Treatment options of nitrogen heterocyclic compounds in industrial wastewater: From fundamental technologies to energy valorization applications and future process design strategies.

Water research
Nitrogen heterocyclic compounds (NHCs) widely exist in industrial wastewater and presented significant environmental and health risks due to their toxicity and persistence. This review addressed the challenges in treating NHCs in industrial wastewate...
