Abstract

This paper describes some of the work carried out within the Horizon 2020 project MIDES (MIcrobial DESalination for low energy drinking water), which is developing the world’s largest demonstration of a low-energy sys-tem to produce safe drinking water. The work in focus concerns the support for operational decisions on desalination plants, specifically applied to a mi-crobial-powered approach for water treatment and desalination, starting from the stages of process modelling, process simulation, optimization and lab-validation, through the stages of plant monitoring and automated control. The work is based on the application of the environment IPSEpro for the stage of process modelling and simulation; and on the system DataBridge for auto-mated control, which employs techniques of Machine Learning.
