the objective of this paper is to present the development of a decision support system (DSS) that generates flow diagrams in wastewater treatment plants (WWTP). the proposed DSS is based on a hierarchical decision approach that breaks down a complex design problem into a series of issues easier to analyze and to evaluate. For each one of these issues, three levels of abstraction are defined (units, submeta-units and meta-units) modifying their degree of engineering detail and thus facilitating the decision maker being focused at each design step. the generation of the flow diagrams is carried out by means of the interaction of two knowledge bases (KB). the first knowledge base (S-KB) summarizes the main features of the different treatment technologies i.e, removal efficiency, costs, process reliability. the second (C-KB) contains information about the degree of compatibility amongst the different technologies i.e. high, low, non-compatible. Both S-KB and C-KB are linked to another data-base (E-KB) with additional information about legislation and special requirements. As a result it is possible to further reduce the number of alternatives and finally decrease the size of the design responses surface. the proposed DSS allows the generation of different WWTP flow diagram: i) including conventional and innovative treatment alternatives, ii) exploring multiples technological combinations, iii) avoiding the consideration of treatment alternatives that a high levels of abstraction resulted to be undesirable iv) offering a customized water treatment scheme according to a set of design requirements and initial conditions and v) finally facilitating the incorporation of different evaluation methods to select the alternative that satisfies the most the different design objectives.

the main objective of this paper is to evaluate the risk of suffering rising sludge problems under different modes of operation and clarifier designs using the IWA Benchmark Simulation Model no 1 (BSM1). First, as a reference case, waste flow, dissolved oxygen, external recirculation and the settling area were modified and the risk of rising sludge quantified. In a second series of simulations, the bio-kinetic parameters and the influent fractions of the Activated Sludge Model No 1 (ASM1) were considered uncertain and both Monte-Carlo and sensitivity analyses of rising sludge risk were carried out. the results of this study showed that rising sludge problems could be avoided either decreasing nitrification efficiency or reducing the biomass residence time in the bottom of the secondary clarifier. Also, the Monte Carlo simulations revealed that the uncertainty of the model predictions differed for the different evaluated scenarios. this difference was strongly related to the effect of the input uncertainty on the nitrogen removal bacteria. Finally, it was found that ηg (anoxic growth rate correction factor) was responsible for causing the majority of the rising sludge risk output uncertainty for all the evaluated scenarios. Nevertheless, when nitrification efficiency was low, the autotrophic maximum specific growth rate (μA) become more important having an important role on the overall model predictions. Summarizing, the study allowed a better understanding of rising sludge in wastewater treatment plants, the evaluation of different ways to overcome these problems (in both values and uncertainty), the identification of the model parameters withthe strongest influence on its possible uncertainty and finally some practical implications from an operational and design perspective.
