This work aimed to assess the water quality of the Tuojiang River Basin in recent years to provide a better understanding of its current pollution situation, and the potential pollution risks and causes. Water quality parameters such as dissolved oxygen (DO), ammonia–nitrogen (NH3-N), total phosphorus (TP), the permanganate index (CODMn), five-day biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5), pH, and concentrations of various heavy metals were measured in the Tuojiang River, according to the national standards of the People’s Republic of China. Samples were collected between 2012 to 2018 at 11 national monitoring sites in the Tuojiang River Basin. The overall water pollution situation was evaluated with back propagation artificial neural network (BP-ANN) analysis. The pollution causes were analyzed considering both industrial wastewater discharge in the upper reaches and the current pollution situation. We found potential risks of excessive NH3-N, TP, Cd, Hg, and Pb concentrations in the Tuojiang River Basin. Moreover, corresponding water pollution control suggestions were given.

This study aims at providing a back propagation-artificial neural network (BP-ANN) model on forecasting the water quality change trend of Qiantang River basin. To achieve this goal, a three-layer (one input layer, one hidden layer, and one output layer) BP-ANN with the LM regularization training algorithm was used. Water quality variables such as pH value, dissolved oxygen, permanganate index and ammonia-nitrogen was selected as the input data to obtain the output of the neural network. The ANN structure with 17 hidden neurons obtained the best selection. The comparison between the original measured and forecast values of the ANN model shows that the relative errors, with a few exceptions, were lower than 9%. The results indicated that the BP neural network can be satisfactorily applied to forecast precise water quality parameters and is suitable for pre-alarm of water quality trend.

Concerns about water quality have widely increased in the last three decades; thus, water quality is now as important as its quantity. To study and model the quality of the Gamasiab River, its data, including chemical oxygen demand (COD), biological oxygen demand (BOD), dissolved oxygen (DO), total dissolved solids (TDS), total suspended solids in water, acidity, temperature, turbidity, and cations and anions were measured at four stations. Then, the correlations between these parameters and COD were measured using Pearson’s correlation coefficient and modeled by multilayer perceptron artificial neural network. In order to minimize the cost of the experiments performed and to provide the input parameters to the artificial neural network based on the correlations between the data and COD, the number of input parameters was reduced and finally, model No.3, with the Momentum training function and the TanhAxon activation function with the validation correlation coefficient of 0.97, mean absolute error of 2.88, and normalized root mean square error of 0.11 was identified as the most accurate model with the lowest cost. The results of the present study showed that the multilayer perceptron neural network has high ability in modeling the COD of the river, and those data correlated with each other have the greatest effect on the model. Moreover, the number of input parameters can be reduced in order to lower the cost of experiments while the performance of the model is not undermined.

We developed an artificial neural network (ANN)-based water quality prediction model and evaluated the applicability of the model using regional probability forecasts provided by the Korea Meteorological Administration as the input data of the model. The ANN-based water quality prediction model was constructed by reflecting the actual meteorological observation data and the water quality factors classified using an exploratory factor analysis (EFA) for each unit watershed in Nam River. To apply spatial refinement of meteorological factors for each unit watershed, we used the data of the Sancheong meteorological station for Namgang A and B, and the data of the Jinju meteorological station for Namgang C, D, and E. The predicted water quality variables were dissolved oxygen (DO), biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygen demand (COD), total organic carbon (TOC), total phosphorus (T-P), and suspended solids (SS). The ANN evaluation results reveal that the Namgang E unit watershed has a higher model accuracy than the other unit watersheds. Furthermore, compared with Namgang C and D, Namgang E has a high correlation with water quality due to meteorological effects. The results of this study will help establish a water quality forecasting system based on probabilistic weather forecasting in the long term.

Water is a good solvent, so that the water in nature is never pure. If the content of various substances and microorganisms contained in water exceeds the allowable threshold, the water quality will be compromised. Impaired water quality is said to be contaminated water. With so keep in mind how the level of contamination found in the water. With the construction of an artificial neural network using the Perceptron network is expected to be built capable of providing the level of water pollution prediction results.

Water is one of the prime elements responsible for subsistence on the earth. The scarcity of potable water is gradually increasing with the increase in population. The surface water quality is a very crucial and sensitive issue and is also a great environmental concern worldwide. Surface water pollution by physical, chemical, radiological and biological contaminants can be considered as an epidemic at times, all over the world. The present research work aims at assessing the water quality index (WQI) in the surface water of Brahmani river basin in Odisha by monitoring five sampling locations. The surface water samples data were subjected to comprehensive physico-chemical analysis besides general parameters. The monthly water quality parameters were collected and analyzed from five selected gauging stations of Odisha during the months of January to December from 2011 to 2016. Eleven physical, chemical and biological water quality parameters viz. pH, Dissolved Oxygen (DO), Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD), Electrical Conductivity(EC), Nitrogen as nitrate (Nitrate-N), Total Coli-form Bacteria(TC), Fecal Coli-form Bacteria(FC), Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD), Nitrogen as ammonia (NH4-N), Total Alkalinity (TA) as CaCO3, Total Hardness (TH) as CaCO3 were selected for the analysis. Analysis of water quality for Brahmani River is done by Water Quality Index (WQI). Prediction of water quality index is done by using Artificial Neural Network (ANN).  It is apparent from WQI values that Talcher and Panposh recorded the water quality as moderate to poor and nearly unsuitable during the years 2011-2016 indicating water as not safe for domestic purposes and needs treatment, the WQI values of Kamalanga ranged from good to poor and the WQI values of Aul and Pottamundai ranged from good to moderate. Eleven physico-chemical parameters were involved in this analysis as input variables and water quality index as output variable. Two models were proposed to identify the most effective model in an attempt to predict the WQI.  Correlation between the parameters was carried out to find out the significant parameters affecting WQI. The ANN developed was trained and tested successfully using the available data sets and the performance of ANN models were determined by coefficient of determination (R2) and Root Mean Square Error (RMSE). Results show that ANN-1 gives the higher value of R2 in summer, monsoon and winter season (0.989, 0.976 and 0.959) and low RMSE (2.1865, 2.0768 and1.9657) as compared to that of the second model (ANN-2) which gives R2 value as 0.933, 0.945 and 0.943 and RMSE value as 2.8765, 2.5456 and 1.2745 for summer, monsoon and winter seasons respectively. Hence this study triggered the use of Artificial Neural Network to predict the Water Quality Index (WQI) rather than using the traditional WQI equation.

The Impact

Abstract Assessing water quality provides a scientific foundation for the development and management of water resources. The objective of the research is to evaluate the impact treated effluent from North Rustumiyia wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) on the quality of Diyala river. The model of the artificial neural network (ANN) and factor analysis (FA) based on Nemerow pollution index (NPI). To define important water quality parameters for North Al-Rustumiyia for the line(F2), the Nemerow Pollution Index was introduced. The most important parameters of assessment of water variation quality of wastewater were the parameter used in the model: biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygen demand (COD), suspension solids (SS), chloride, cl, hydrogen ion concentration, pH, sulfate, SO4-2, nitrate, NO3- and phosphate, PO4-3. Taking these criteria into account, samples of water from the sampling sites were graded as C, indicating the pollutant of the waste treatment. Then the water quality map using neural network model was based on the results of water quality assessment. The results showed that the model North Al-Rustumiyia for line F2 was more efficient and R2 was 0.965 with the impotence parameter was chloride (CL).
