Smart, Data-Driven Aeration in Water Resource Recovery Facilities for Balancing Wastewater Treatment and Energy Consumption
Abstract
Existing electricity networks need to adapt to the increasing amount of renewables to maintain a safe and stable supply. This will require massive developments in smart energy systems. Hence applications such as building heat, vehicle charging and industrial cooling have received attention in their ability to “smartly” consume/save energy in selected periods without significant loss of utility for the users. In this transformation, urban water systems can also provide an important contribution.
