On evaluating the present or future state of integrated urban water systems, sewer drainage models, with rainfall as primary input, are often used to calculate the expected return periods of given detrimental acute pollution events and the uncertainty thereof. The model studied in the present paper incorporates notions of physical theory in a stochastic model of water level and particulate chemical oxygen demand (COD) at the overflow point of a Dutch combined sewer system. A stochastic model based on physical mechanisms has been formulated in continuous time. The extended Kalman filter has been used in conjunction with a maximum likelihood criteria and a non-linear state space formulation to decompose the error term into system noise terms and measurement errors. The bias generally obtained in deterministic modelling, by invariably and often inappropriately assuming all error to result from measurement inaccuracies, is thus avoided. Continuous time stochastic modelling incorporating physical, chemical and biological theory presents a possible modelling alternative. These preliminary results suggest that further work is needed in order to fully appreciate the method's potential and limitations in the field of urban runoff pollution modelling.

TRILITY has developed a production cloud data management solution, KOIOS DatalytiX to provide hybrid machine learning applications and deterministic modelling tools to its operations, asset management, and engineering teams. Two optimiser applications for chemical coagulant prediction and filtration performance were deployed in the Riverland, South Australia at 10 conventional water treatment plants in 2018, to full production in 2019. One year later the impacts on the optimisation behaviour of operations teams, process performance and trihalomethane (THM) reduction outcomes are discussed.

The paper will describe the development and operation of a comprehensive tropical cyclone wind, wave and storm tide risk design and warning software toolbox that covers all of tropical-influenced Australia, The toolbox is designed to provide both rapid assessment and detailed design capabilities for coastal, port, offshore and nearshore design, including projected future climate change. It also provides real-time emergency management functionality. The toolbox provides a probabilistic design framework that facilitates the essential need for sensitivity analysis of both inputs and outputs without pre-conceived risk thresholds. It provides the essential hazard component in a robust and verified context that can then, depending on the application, enable more focused and efficient deterministic modelling stages using models of choice.Recorded Presentation from the vICCE (YouTube Link): https://youtu.be/pssgiYdkEbM
