Abstract

Although Activated Sludge Model No. 1 (ASM1) was used for modelling biological nitrogen removal processes, estimation of input parameters required to run this model necessitates complicated laboratory analyses. In this study, the performance of Backpropagation Artificial Neural Networks (BPANN), which requires considerably less numbers of input parameters, in predicting chemical oxygen demand (COD), total Kjeldahl nitrogen (TKN), and total nitrogen (TN) removal efficiencies was tested. For this purpose, four activation functions were employed in BPANN. Results suggested that COD, TKN, and TN removal efficiencies in AO processes can be accurately estimated using BPANN, with the highest learning and prediction capacity when Sinc function is employed. The mean square errors (MSEs) with Sinc-BPANN were calculated as 2.50×10-4 for COD removal efficiency, 4.15×10-4 for TKN removal efficiency, and 2.65×10-4 for TN removal efficiency. Therefore, the Sinc-BPANN is concluded to be an efficient tool for estimating nonlinear nature of COD, TKN, and TN removal efficiencies in AO processes using considerably less numbers of input parameters.

Özet

Biyolojik azot giderimi gerçekleştirilen atıksu arıtma proseslerinin (AO prosesi) modellenmesi amacıyla Aktif Çamur Modeli No. 1 (ASM1) kullanılagelmişse de bu modelde ihtiyaç duyulan girdi parametrelerinin tahmin edilmesi çok zaman almaktadır. Bu çalışma kapsamında, ASM1 kadar detaylı girdi verisi gerektirmeyen geri beslemeli yapay sinir ağlarının (BPANN) AO proseslerindeki kimyasal oksijen ihtiyacı (KOİ), toplam Kjeldahl azotu (TKN) ve toplam azot (TN) giderim verimlerinin tahminindeki performansı test edilmiştir. Bu amaçla BPANN’de dört farklı aktivasyon fonksiyonu kullanılmıştır. Elde edilen sonuçlar, AO proseslerindeki KOİ, TKN ve TN giderim verimlerinin BPANN ile yüksek doğrulukta tahmin edilebildiğini göstermiş; en iyi öğrenme ve tahmin yeteneği ise Sinc fonksiyonu ile elde edilmiştir. Sinc-BPANN ile elde edilen ortalama kare hatalar KOİ giderim verimi için 2,50×10-4, TKN giderim verimi için 4,15×10-4, TN giderim verimi için ise 2,65×10-4 olarak hesaplanmıştır. Buna göre Sinc-BPANN AO proseslerindeki KOİ, TKN ve TN giderim verimlerinin doğrusal olmayan doğasını ASM1’e nazaran çok daha az girdi parametresiyle açıklayabilmektedir.
