Design and implementation of an environmental decision support system for the control and management of drinking water treatment plants
Drinking water treatment plants (DWTPs) face significant challenges due to anthropocentric pressure and climate change. To address them, DWTP managers need to adjust treatment units.

| Summary: | Drinking water treatment plants (DWTPs) face significant challenges due to anthropocentric pressure and climate change. To address them, DWTP managers need to adjust treatment units. In the present work, a decision support system (EDSS) has been developed to respond to the main operational challenges of two real case studies: Llobregat and Ter DWTPs. Specifically, data-driven and knowledge-based models have been developed to address the control of the pre-oxidation process, the formation of disinfection by-products (DBPs) and to monitor the microbiological safety of the water produced. The various tools resulting from this thesis have been integrated into a decision support system and have been validated at full-scale DWTPs |
