A stochastic approach for assessing the chronic environmental risk generated by wet-weather events from integrated urban wastewater systems

Abstract

Wet-weather discharges from urban areas with a combined wastewater system represent a threat for surface waters. In fact, when the system capacity is reached during medium/big rain events, a mixture...

A One-Class-Based Supervision System to Detect Unexpected Events in Wastewater Treatment Plants

“…Depending on the sewer network type, WWTPs may receive either domestic and industrial wastewater in separative sewer networks or a combination of rainwater, domestic, and industrial wastewater in combined sewer networks. In the latter case, although the pollution level in wastewater is generally lower during rainfall events, the volume of water significantly increases, occasionally surpassing the treatment capacity of WWTPs [6,7].…”
