Developing Combined Sedimentation/Adsorption Process for Starch Wastewater Treatment Followed by Sludge Valorization: A Techno-Economic and Artificial Intelligence Approach
摘要
Starch wastewater (SWW) was managed by sedimentation/adsorption/sludge valorization. Artificial neural network (3-10-1) was optimized to predict chemical oxygen demand removal. Biochar could be generated from pyrolysis of sedimentation sludge, exhibiting carbon credits. Project feasibility criteria maintained positive net present value and shorter payback period. SDG#6 was fulfilled by SWW wastewater treatment and SDG#12 by sludge recycling.
