3 Ways AI Improves The Treatment Of Sewage And Industrial Effluents

By Javier Cantu

Modern treatment of sewage and industrial effluents as we know it has remained relatively unchanged in terms of how plants leverage biological processes to treat wastewater. For approximately 100 years these systems have been studied and optimized for hydraulic retention times, sludge retention times, and other control variables.

Considering our sewage and industrial effluent plays a big role on the quality of our environment, industrial and municipal operations often resort to large capital improvement projects, or static studies to determine best operating practices for their wastewater treatment system.
