摘要

This study proposes an inverse neural network (INN) framework to optimize aeration control in a sequencing batch reactor(SBR), addressing the dual challenges of energy efficiency and regulatory compliance in wastewater treatment. By integrating data-driven modeling with constrained optimization, the method dynamically adjusts aeration rates to maintain effluent ammonia concentrations below 5 mg/L while minimizing energy consumption. A back-propagation neural network (BPNN) establishes input–output correlations between process parameters and effluent ammonia concentration, constructing the inverse mapping foundation for the INN to resolve constraint-driven aeration optimization. Experimental validation across 20 operational cycles demonstrated a 20.3% reduction in energy usage compared to conventional fixed-rate aeration, achieving 95% compliance with discharge standards. The framework's penalty-based optimization and gradient clipping mechanisms ensure stability in applications, overcoming limitations of traditional proportional-integral-derivative(PID) controllers and mechanistic models. This work advances intelligent control strategies for sustainable wastewater management, offering a template for constraint-aware optimization in environmental engineering systems.
