A method for predicting operation effectiveness of a decentralized sewage treatment facility by using a support vector machine, comprising: simultaneously collecting an influent conductivity and an effluent conductivity, and recording operation effectiveness of the decentralized sewage treatment facility; training a training set by using the support vector machine, with the influent conductivity and effluent conductivity as input and the operation effectiveness of decentralized sewage treatment facilities as output, so as to construct a prediction model for the operation effectiveness of decentralized sewage treatment facilities; and collecting the influent conductivity and effluent conductivity of the treatment facilities to be predicted, and inputting them into the prediction model to obtain a predictive result. The method is not only highly accurate, but fast and inexpensive.

This invention effectively suppresses the corrosion fatigue of a boiler evaporation tube that is associated with repeated stress attributed to the presence of a corrosive environment and scales. This method for suppressing corrosion fatigue of a boiler evaporation tube includes maintaining the dissolved oxygen concentration of the boiler water at 1.0 mg/L or less. Preferably deionized water is used for the boiler water and a scale dispersant is present in the boiler water.

A water treatment plant includes a central monitoring device, a control device, a control device, and a computation unit, and causes a water treatment apparatus and a water treatment apparatus to execute water treatment. The central monitoring device monitors the water treatment apparatus and the water treatment apparatus. The control device performs a first control for the water treatment apparatus. The control device performs a second control for the water treatment apparatus. The computation unit is located outside the central monitoring device and performs a first computation related to the first control using a first calculation model generated by a first machine learning.

A digital twin model based operation and optimization of a reverse osmosis plant uses a data processing system to receive data for a reverse osmosis membrane in a plant that with a plurality of assets. The data processing system can determine a level of performance of the membrane based on the data for the membrane input into a model generated with sa topology indicative of one or more relationships and a flow path between the plurality of assets, predict, based on the model and responsive to the level of performance input into an optimization function for the plant, a time at which the level of performance degrades below a threshold, and provide an indication of the time at which the level of performance degrades below the threshold predicted using the optimization function to cause servicing of the membrane used to process the fluid at the plant.

A method and system for operating a seal gas compressor utilized in a direct reduction process including: monitoring a pH level of a water stream used in the seal gas compressor, wherein the pH level of the water stream is affected by a reformer flue gas stream that comes into contact with the water stream, wherein the monitoring step is carried out one or more of upstream of the seal gas compressor and downstream of the compressor; and adjusting the pH level of the water stream to maintain the pH level of the water stream within a predetermined range based on feedback from the monitoring step. The method includes maintaining the pH level of the water stream upstream of the seal gas compressor in a range between 7.5 and 10 and maintaining the pH level of the water stream downstream of the seal gas compressor in a range between 7.8 and 9.5.
