Artificial Neural Networks for Defining the Operational Parameters of Sand Filters for Irrigation

open access: yesIrrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The difficulty in defining the working configuration during the operation of sand filters arises from the complexity of the relationships among the variables in the filtration and backwashing processes. The objective was to use artificial neural networks to model the pressure loss and removal efficiency of filtration in a commercial sand ...
