Deep eutectic solvent-modified polyvinyl alcohol/chitosan thin film membrane for dye adsorption: Machine learning modeling, experimental, and density functional theory calculations.

International journal of biological macromolecules
The polyvinyl alcohol/chitosan (PVA/CS) thin film membrane was modified using a deep eutectic solvent (DES) to enhance its adsorption capability and mechanical strength for the removal of brilliant green (BG) dye. Batch adsorption experiments, machin...

Efficient and stable extraction of nano-sized plastic particles enabled by bio-inspired magnetic "robots" in water.

Environmental pollution (Barking, Essex : 1987)
In this research, a rationally-designed strategy was employed to address the crucial issue of removing nano-plastics (NPs) from aquatic environments, which was based on fabricating sea urchin-like structures of FeO magnetic robots (MagRobots). Throug...

Machine learning-based prediction of non-aeration linear alkylbenzene sulfonate mineralization in an oxygenic microalgal-bacteria biofilm.

Bioresource technology
Microalgal-bacteria biofilm shows great potential in low-cost greywater treatment. Accurately predicting treated greywater quality is of great significance for water reuse. In this work, machine learning models were developed for simulating and predi...

How small is big enough? Big data-driven machine learning predictions for a full-scale wastewater treatment plant.

Water research
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,...

Enhanced iodinated disinfection byproducts formation in iodide/iodate-containing water undergoing UV-chloramine sequential disinfection: Machine learning-aided identification of reaction mechanisms.

Water research
Restricted to the complex nature of dissolved organic matter (DOM) in various aquatic environments, the mechanisms of enhanced iodinated disinfection byproducts (I-DBPs) formation in water containing both I and IO (designated as I/IO in this study) d...

Predicting the adsorption of ammonia nitrogen by biochar in water bodies using machine learning strategies: Model optimization and analysis of key characteristic variables.

Environmental research
Biochar adsorption technology has been widely used to remove ammonia nitrogen from water bodies. However, existing methods for predicting adsorption efficiency often lack sufficient accuracy and practical usability. This study evaluated eight machine...

Evaluation of plant-based coagulants for turbidity removal and coagulant dosage prediction using machine learning.

Environmental technology
This study investigates the use of six plant-based coagulants - , , , , , and for the removal of turbidity from wastewater effluent. The coagulants were characterized using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) to determine morphological structure, X-r...

Design optimization of bimetal-modified biochar for enhanced phosphate removal performance in livestock wastewater using machine learning.

Bioresource technology
Mg-modified biochar shows high adsorption performance under weakly acidic and neutral water conditions. However, its phosphate removal efficiency markedly decreases in naturally alkaline wastewater, such as that released in livestock farming (anaerob...

Design and synthesis of a new recyclable nanohydrogel based on chitosan for Deltamethrin removal from aqueous solutions: Optimization and modeling by RSM-ANN.

International journal of biological macromolecules
In this study, a new magnetic biocompatible hydrogel was synthesized as an adsorbent for Deltamethrin pesticide removal. The optimal conditions and adsorption process of Deltamethrin by chitosan/polyacrylic acid/FeO nanocomposite hydrogel was studied...

Feasibility study of machine learning to explore relationships between antimicrobial resistance and microbial community structure in global wastewater treatment plant sludges.

Bioresource technology
Wastewater sludges (WSs) are major reservoirs and emission sources of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in cities. Identifying antimicrobial resistance (AMR) host bacteria in WSs is crucial for understanding AMR formation and mitigating biological a...
