Predicting influent biochemical oxygen demand: Balancing energy demand and risk management
Ready access to comprehensive influent information can help water reclamation plant (WRP) operators implement better real-time process controls, provide operational reliability and reduce energy consumption. The five-day biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5), a critical parameter for WRP process control, is expensive and difficult to measure using hard ...

Prediction of biochemical oxygen demand with genetic algorithm-based support vector regression
Five-day biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5) is a vital wastewater contamination strength indicator. The process of measuring BOD5 is to measure the mass of molecular oxygen consumed in 1 L of water at 20 °C over 5-day incubation period.
