Item Machine learning approaches for data-driven process monitoring of biological wastewater treatment plant: A review of research works on benchmark simulation model No. 1(BSM1)(Springer, 2023-07) Pani, Ajaya KumarIn the past decade, machine learning techniques have seen wide industrial applications for design of data-based process monitoring systems with an aim to improve industrial productivity. An efficient process monitoring system for wastewater treatment process (WWTP) ensures increased efficiency and effluents meeting stringent emission norms. Benchmark simulation model No. 1 (BSM1) provides a simulation platform to researchers for developing efficient data-based process monitoring, quality monitoring, and process control systems for WWTPs. The present article presents a review of all research works reporting applications of various machine learning techniques for sensor and process fault detection of BSM1. The review focuses on process monitoring of biological wastewater treatment process, which uses a series of aerobic and anaerobic reactions followed by secondary settling process. Detailed information on various parameters monitored, different machine learning techniques explored, and results obtained by different researchers are presented in tabular and graphical format. In the review, it was observed that principal component analysis (PCA) and its variants account for the maximum number of research works for process monitoring in WWTPs and there are very few applications of recently developed deep learning techniques. Following the review and analysis, various future scopes of research (such as techniques yet to be explored or improvement of results for a particular fault) are also presented. These information will assist prospective researchers working on BSM1 to take forward the research.Item An integrated approach combining randomized kernel PCA, Gaussian mixture modeling and ICA for fault detection in non-linear processes(IOP, 2024) Pani, Ajaya KumarPrincipal component analysis (PCA) and independent component analysis (ICA), as well as their kernel extensions, have been widely applied in the past for industrial fault detection with Gaussian or non-Gaussian process data with linear or non-linear characteristics. Kernel-based techniques lead to computational complexity due to the high dimensionality of the dataset in the feature space. In this work, a randomization approach is used to obtain a low-rank approximation of the high-dimensional kernel matrix. A hybrid machine learning technique is proposed that integrates randomized kernel PCA (RKPCA) with ICA and Gaussian mixture modeling (GMM). The proposed approach, ICA-RKPCA-GMM, addresses the Gaussian and non-Gaussian characteristics of non-linear process data. Another hybrid algorithm combining three basic techniques of ICA, PCA and GMM is also developed (ICA-PCA-GMM). The fault detection performances of the proposed techniques (ICA-RKPCA-GMM and ICA-PCA-GMM) are compared with PCA, ICA, KPCA and combined ICA-PCA techniques by applying the techniques to two benchmark systems. Monitoring performances were evaluated by determining the false alarm rate and fault detection rate for different types of process and sensor faults. The simulation results show that the proposed ICA-RKPCA-GMM approach yields better results than individual ICA, PCA and KPCA techniques, the combined ICA-PCA and the proposed ICA-PCA-GMM technique.
