Abstract: | Wastewater treatment plant control and monitoring can help to achieve good effluent quality, in a complex, highly non-linear process. The Benchmark Simulation Model no. 2 (BSM2) is a useful tool to competitively evaluate plant-wide control on a long-term basis.A method to conduct scenario analysis of process designs by means of Monte Carlo (MC) simulations and multi-criteria evaluation is presented. It is applied to the open loop version of BSM2 and to two closed loop versions, one with a simple oxygen controller and the other one with an ammonium controller regulating the set-point of the oxygen controller (cascade controller). The results show a much greater benefit of the cascade controller compared to the simple controller, both in environmental and economic terms. From an optimal process design point of view, the results show that the volume of the primary clarifier and the anoxic fraction of the reactor volume have an important impact on process performance.The uncertainty analysis of the optimal designs, also performed with MC simulations, highlights the improved and more stable effluent under closed loop control. |
