DRIVING THE FUTURE OF WATER RESOURCE RECOVERY FACILITIES THROUGH DATA INTELLIGENCE

CORDIS · observation · Publication date unknown

ey priorities in wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) and these installations started to be perceived as Water Resource Recovery Facilities (WRRF). Under this context, the exploitation of data through artificial intelligence tools with the objective of accelerating the transition of WWTP to WRRF has not been fully addressed yet. When compared to treatment technologies, the deployment of AI-powered tools in production is much faster and, therefore, provides immediate benefits. In that sense, three main barriers have been identified in this domain: i) Mechanistic mathematical models involve complex formulations and specific terminology that are difficult to understand for plant operators; ii) WRRF are harsh environments with strong impact on the quality of data; iii) Essential information in WRRFs is limited and not continuously available. In particular, to overcome these challenges, DARROW will build and demonstrate into an operational environment, an innovative, optimised, modular, and flexible data-driven AI solution to make existing WWTP more autonomous, more energy efficient and b
