A method and system for wastewater treatment based on dissolved oxygen control by a fuzzy neural network, the method for wastewater treatment comprising the following steps: (1) measuring art inlet water flow rate, an ORP value in an anaerobic tank, a DO value in an aerobic tank, an inlet water COD value, and an actual outlet water COD value; (2) collecting the measured sample data and sending them via a computer to a COD fuzzy neural network predictive model, so as to establish an outlet water COD predicted value, (3) comparing the outlet COD predicted value with the outlet water COD set value, so as to obtain an error and an error change rate, and using them as two input variables to adjust a suitable dissolved oxygen concentration. Accordingly, the on-line prediction and real-time control of dissolved oxygen wastewater treatment are achieved. The accurate control of dissolved oxygen concentration by the present method for wastewater treatment can achieve a saving in energy consumption while ensuring stable running of the sewage treatment system, and the outlet water quality meets the national emission standards.

Chemically oxidizing a wide range of targeted contaminants in soils, sludges, groundwater, process water, and wastewater and assisting in the eventual (over time) biological attenuation of the contaminants utilizing persulfates activated by trivalent metals, such as ferric iron. The use of trivalent metal activated persulfate results in a chemical oxidation process that yields degradation compounds which facilitate further attenuation via biological processes.

In addition, the first measurement device is adapted to calculate the target component concentration or correct a successive measurement value with use of the latest correlation value.

The application belongs to the technical field of water treatment, and relates to a biofilm electrochemical reactor for simultaneously removing nitrate nitrogen and trace organic matters in water. According to the principles of electrochemical reaction and products completely different under different cathode and anode material conditions, the reactor is divided into three functional regions, wherein first, an electrochemical reaction of producing hydrogen at a cathode and decomposing carbon at an anode is realized in a first functional region so as to provide a condition for reduction of nitrate nitrogen by a hydrogen autotrophic denitrifying bacteria of a particle electrode layer in a second functional region, after products generated by means of the electrochemical reaction and a biochemical reaction in the previous two functional regions enter a third functional region, pollutants such as trace organic components and residual ammonia nitrogen in water are oxidized and decomposed by using anodic oxidation function.

A system for treating produced water, for example from a SAGD bitumen production operation, has a treatment unit using chemical oxidation (CO) or electromagnetic treatment (ET) to destroy or degrade organics in the produced water. The treatment module may use CO or ET in combination with biological treatment or sorption processes or both. When the treatment module is used upstream of a steam generator, it reduces fouling in the steam generator and in any blowdown water treatment device. A brine concentrator or a crystallizer may be used to treat the blowdown water. The treatment module may be used in combination with a nanofiltration (NF) or reverse osmosis (RO) membrane filter. Optionally, the produced water may be treated with an ET process such as microwaves directly upstream of a steam generator or upstream of a concentrator or crystallizer in a blowdown water stream.
