Supervisory Control of Wastewater Treatment Plants by Combining Principal Component Anlaysis and Fuzzy C-Means Clustering
In this paper a methodology for integrated multivariate monitoring and control of biological wastewater treatment plants during extreme events is presented. To monitor the process, on-line dynamic principal component analysis (PCA) is performed on the process data to extract the principal components that represent the underlying mechanisms of the process. Fuzzy c-means (FCM) clustering is used to
