Title:
Predictive control and feedback equilibrium-seeking for sustainable water resource recovery
Presenter:
Otacilio B. L. Neto (Aalto University)
Abstract:
In this presentation, we investigate automation solutions to transition wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) into sustainable water resource recovery facilities (WRRFs), that is, plants that produce goods and energy using wastewater as a raw material. We investigate optimal control and game-theoretical methods (i) for repurposing the already existing infrastructure to these emerging objectives, and (ii) for promoting a wastewater-centered market through an interconnected network of WRRFs. Our findings contribute a step towards zero-waste water resource recovery infrastructures, with our study on networked systems also benefiting applications from different domains, such as smart grids and supply chain management.
