Publication number: 20210230016Abstract: Fluid stream management systems and methods are described. An exemplar fluid stream management system includes a neural network connected to a cascading treatment processor. The neural network calculates an initial distant flow condition attribute value for a distant fluid treatment facility. The cascading treatment processor using hydrological information and the initial distant flow condition attribute value computes a predicted modified contribution value for the distant fluid treatment facility. The cascading treatment processor instructs multiple fluid flow controllers, each of which controls the operation of a flow-directing device such that a sum of the predicted modified total load value and a real time total load value of the distant fluid treatment facility is minimized. The real time total load value of the distant fluid treatment facility is based upon real time measurements obtained from one or more of the distant fluid treatment facility sensors.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 29, 2021Publication date: July 29, 2021Applicant: EmNet, LLCInventors: Caleb Buahin, Mehmet Ercan, William Knight, Timothy Ruggaber, Bryant McDonnel
