ABSTRACT: In this study, adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system, and feed forward neural network as two artificial intelligence-based models along with conventional multiple linear regression model were used to predict the multi-station modelling of dissolve oxygen concentration at the downstream of Mathura City in India. The data used are dissolved oxygen, pH, biological oxygen demand and water...

the activated sludge process simply involves bringing together wastewater and a mixed culture of microorganisms under aerobic conditions. the system usually includes a secondary treatment given to the settled sewage, and requires an environment in which active microorganisms are maintained in intimate contact with wastewater in the presence of sufficient oxygen. in this study, the treatment of ...

results the results of this study showed that the release of soluble chemical oxygen demand (scod) in the supernatant and srf were in the range of 127.9-831 mg/l and 12.48-36.55 m/kg at 10 to 120 min ultrasonic contact time, respectively. in addition, ts and vs decreased from 57.98 and 56.31 to 52.69 and 49.87 mg/l, respectively. despite the significant reduction in the solids, there was no con...

Rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) is one of the most-widely cultivated cold fresh water fish in the world. Gamasyab River, with a length of about 200 Km, is one of the longest rivers of Iran. The aim of this research is to determine the effects of trout farm effluents on this river water.  From a total of 24 trout farms in the area,  four farms were randomly selected and three sampling statio...
