Automation off an anaerobic waste-water treatment process by using PLC and SCADA

Anaerobic wastewater treatments have recently drawn attention and become the subject-matter of many researches due to the several advantages it provides. Anaerobic treatmentsystems stand as very important process in terms of being more economical and giving lesssurplus sludge as compared to aerobic system, and even more important prodicing methanewhich is called bio-energy; especially in treating wastewater with medium and highconcentration of pollution. However , modeling and effective control of the anaerobictreatment system is difficult.In this thesis, the initial work on establishing and controlling a pilot-scaled anaerobictreatment facility by using PLC and SCADA.
