Abstract

The target of this paper is to present a prototype of Intelligent Environmental Decision Support System (IEDSS) that guarantees robust and independent monitoring and real-time control of membrane bioreactors, and at the same time allows remote supervision of the integrated operation of the biological process and the physical separation by the membranes. The rule-based and model-based systems include empirical and tacit knowledge to relate parameters of biological control to the membrane unit operation. At the same time, the IEDSS is meant to be equipped with an automatic learning module of the membranes life cycle that records and analyses accumulated experiences and allows acquired knowledge to be reused in the future whenever similar situations arise.

Intelligent Environmental Decision Support System for integrated operation of Membrane Bioreactors

The target of this paper is to present a prototype of Intelligent Environmental Decision Support System (IEDSS) that guarantees robust and independent monitoring and real-time control of membrane bioreactors, and at the same time allows remote supervision of the integrated operation of the biological process and the physical separation by the membranes. The rule-based and model-based systems include empirical and tacit knowledge to relate parameters of biological control to the membrane unit operation. At the same time, the IEDSS is meant to be equipped with an automatic learning module of the membranes life cycle that records and analyses accumulated experiences and allows acquired knowledge to be reused in the future whenever similar situations arise.
