Data-driven control requires no information of the mathematical model of the controlled process. This paper proposes the direct identification of controller parameters of activated sludge process. This class of data-driven control calculates the predictive controller parameters directly using subspace identification technique. By updating input-output data using receding window mechanism, the adaptive strategy can be achieved. The robustness test and stability analysis of direct adaptive model predictive control are discussed to realize the effectiveness of this adaptive control scheme. The applicability of the controller algorithm to adapt into varying kinetic parameters and operating conditions is evaluated. Simulation results show that by a proper and effective excitation of direct identification of controller parameters, the convergence and stability of the implicit predictive model can be achieved.

Kertas kerja ini membincangkan tentang reka bentuk Pengawal Ramalan Model Suai menggunakan kaedah Pengenalpastian Model Keadaan Ruang Sub–ruang bagi proses enapcemar teraktif. Penggunaan teknik Pengenalpastian Model Keadaan Ruang Sub–ruang di dalam kaedah kawalan tingkat gelangsar suai dibincangkan di mana pengenalpastian sub–ruang dalam talian menggunakan algoritma N4SID di perkenalkan bersama dengan rekabentuk Pengawal ramalan model. Pembangunan N4SID dalam talian di dalam kertas kerja ini menggunakan pengemaskini QR di mana gabungan di antara teknik kemaskini dan kemasbawah membolehkan pengadaptasi tingkap gelangsar. Di sini, untuk setiap langkah masa, bagi setiap data baru akan dimasukkan ke faktor R manakala data yang lama dibuang. Begitu juga, strategi bagi uraian nilai tunggal diperkenalkan ke dalam Pengawal Ramalan Model Suai tak langsung untuk masukan tambahan kawalan bagi sistem terkekang tak lelurus. Beberapa kajian simulasi bagi parameter kawalan berlainan di dalam pengawal/pengenalpastian algoritma dilaksanakan. Bagi reka bentuk Pengawal Ramalan Model Suai tak langsung, pengiraan masa yang terlibat dengan menggunakan pendekatan uraian nilai tunggal kurang berbanding dengan kaedah perancangan kuadratik dan keputusan yang memberangsangkan ini adalah sumbangan utama di dalam kertas kerja ini.

The implementation of SMI techniques in the adaptive sliding window control methods are discussed where the online subspace identification using Numerical State–space Subspace System Identification (N4SID) algorithm is proposed along with Model Predictive Control (MPC) design method. The online N4SID algorithm developed in this study makes use of the QR–updating where the combination of update and down date techniques enables sliding window adaptation. Here, at each time step, for the new experimental data added into R factor, the oldest data are removed. Also, the Singular Value Decomposition (SVD–based) strategy is proposed into Indirect AMPC (IAMPC) for the control increment input constrained nonlinear system. Several simulation studies for different control parameters in control/identification algorithm are performed. For the IAMPC control design, the computational times involved using an SVD approach shows less burdensome compared to Quadratic Programming (QP) method and such an interesting result is considered as one of the main contribution in this paper. Key words: Adaptive control; activated sludge process; model predictive control; subspace identification

In this paper, an adaptive observer-based predictive controller is designed for the alternating activated sludge process which represents a nonlinear hybrid system. Precisely, our objective is to control the dissolved oxygen concentration during the aerobic phase. First, a hybrid adaptive observer is designed to estimate conjointly the unmeasured state (the ammonia concentration) and the unknown parameter (the coefficient of performance of heterotrophic biomass). Then the estimated signals are used in the output feedback predictive control law. The convergence of the state estimation, parameter reconstruction and tracking control errors are established through a Lyapunov stability analysis. Numerical simulations are dedicated to highlight the good performances of the developed output feedback control approach.

The PACTTM process (powdered activated carbon addition to the activated sludge process) was evaluated for the treatment of Kraft pulp mill wastewater in a series of bench scale experiments. Possibly due to the relatively low strength wastewater, the PACTTM process with carbon doses between 0.5 and 1.0 g/L of influent only performed marginally better than the conventional activated sludge process. Chemical oxygen demand and toxicity, evaluated with the Microtox® assay, were among the parameters monitored. For the operating conditions tested the solids retention time had no impact on performance. The main improvement was increased in adsorbable organic halides (AOX) removal, the magnitude of the improvement was dependent on the wastewater batch and the carbon dose. However conventional activated sludge treatment will meet Ontario's year 2000 AOX regulations. An empirical model from the literature described the data fairly well.
