BP-ANN Model Coupled with Particle Swarm Optimization for the Efficient Prediction of 2-Chlorophenol Removal in an Electro-Oxidation System.

International journal of environmental research and public health
Electro-oxidation is an effective approach for the removal of 2-chlorophenol from wastewater. The modeling of the electrochemical process plays an important role in improving the efficiency of electrochemical treatment and increasing our understandin...

The application of machine learning methods for prediction of metal sorption onto biochars.

Journal of hazardous materials
The adsorption of six heavy metals (lead, cadmium, nickel, arsenic, copper, and zinc) on 44 biochars were modeled using artificial neural network (ANN) and random forest (RF) based on 353 dataset of adsorption experiments from literatures. The regres...

Sequential treatment of paper and pulp industrial wastewater: Prediction of water quality parameters by Mamdani Fuzzy Logic model and phytotoxicity assessment.

Chemosphere
Recycling of industrial wastewater meeting quality standards for agricultural and industrial demands is a viable option. In this study, paper and pulp industrial wastewater were treated with three biological treatments viz. aerobic, anaerobic and seq...

Materials science & engineering. C, Materials for biological applications
Innovative methods to detect and kill pathogenic bacteria have a pivotal role in the eradication of infectious diseases and the prevention of the growth of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. The combination of fluorescent carbon dots (FCDs) with silver n...

Optimization and modeling of methyl orange adsorption onto polyaniline nano-adsorbent through response surface methodology and differential evolution embedded neural network.

Journal of environmental management
Presence of pigments and dyes in water bodies are growing tremendously and pose as toxic materials and have severe health effects on human and aquatic creatures. Treatments methods for removal of these toxic dyes along with other pollutants are growi...

Sorptive equilibrium profile of fluoride onto aluminum olivine [(FeMg)SiO] composite (AOC): Physicochemical insights and isotherm modeling by non-linear least squares regression and a novel neural-network-based method.

Journal of environmental science and health. Part A, Toxic/hazardous substances & environmental engineering
A novel aluminum/olivine composite (AOC) was prepared by wet impregnation followed by calcination and was introduced as an efficient adsorbent for defluoridation. The adsorption of fluoride was modeled with one-, two- and three-parameter isotherm equ...

Use of artificial neuronal networks for prediction of the control parameters in the process of anaerobic digestion with thermal pretreatment.

Journal of environmental science and health. Part A, Toxic/hazardous substances & environmental engineering
This article focuses on the analysis of the behavior patterns of the variables involved in the anaerobic digestion process. The objective is to predict the impact factor and the behavior pattern of the variables, i.e., temperature, pH, volatile solid...

Neural networks for dimensionality reduction of fluorescence spectra and prediction of drinking water disinfection by-products.

Water research
The use of fluorescence data coupled with neural networks for improved predictability of drinking water disinfection by-products (DBPs) was investigated. Novel application of autoencoders to process high-dimensional fluorescence data was related to c...

A review on experimental design for pollutants removal in water treatment with the aid of artificial intelligence.

Chemosphere
Water pollution occurs mainly due to inorganic and organic pollutants, such as nutrients, heavy metals and persistent organic pollutants. For the modeling and optimization of pollutants removal, artificial intelligence (AI) has been used as a major t...

Adsorptive removal of arsenic by novel iron/olivine composite: Insights into preparation and adsorption process by response surface methodology and artificial neural network.

Journal of environmental management
Olivine, a low-cost natural material, impregnated with iron is introduced in the adsorptive removal of arsenic. A wet impregnation method and subsequent calcination were employed for the preparation of iron/olivine composite. The major preparation pr...
