The planned work is to enlarge the on-going development of wastewater treatment plant digital twin to include the network and the receiving water. The developed integrated digital twin can be used to assess the impact of changes in the climate hydrology and develop solutions for the integrated system management. The renewal of the EU Urban Wastewater Treatment Directive brings more stringent requirements for both wastewater treatment and energy optimization. The goal of this project is to enhance the benefits of digitalization for an overall optimization of the sanitation system. The project has links to urban water management (energy optimization, GHG emission mitigation, effluent control) and it will be carried out in close collaboration with water utilities companies offering solutions for process control and automation, network and process modelling as well as instrumentation.
Tasks 1.3, 4.2 and 4.3
Urban water systems, modelling, management
The applicant is expected to have a master’s degree on water/environmental engineering, civil engineering, process engineering or related field. The position requires good teamwork skills and self-management. The applicant should have experience in network and/or process modelling (preferred platforms Fluidit/Sumo/Simulink), model development and application, as well as data management and analysis. Previous experience from working with urban water system design or operation is an asset.
