Analysis of Influent Characteristics for Optimizing the USTHB Wastewater Treatment Plant

The operation of wastewater treatment plants poses challenges for many communities, particularly in terms of costs and energy consumption. This study focuses on two main objectives: reducing nitrogen discharge and optimizing the energy consumption of the USTHB wastewater treatment plant. By combining advanced modeling and dynamic optimization techniques, we have identified effective strategies to improve wastewater treatment and highlight the impact of certain parameters on treatment infrastructure efficiency. The aim of our work is to provide concrete recommendations for enhancing the overall performance of the plant for more sustainable water resource management.
