  The estimation and prediction of BOD5 is an important criterion for wastewater management and biological treatment of polluted rivers. The biological treatment method has been identified as the most optimal and technologically efficient technology to treat polluted urban rivers and streams. This practice has seen tremendous acceptability and applicability in most parts of China. However, the high cost of measurements, laboratory tests and sampling uncertainties associated with water quality variables make monitoring and prediction of desired water quality variables during biological treatment campaigns difficult. This paper has developed empirical models to predict the fate of BOD5 during a biological treatment method. The developed ten models were evaluated using ten-stratified cross validation technique. The results indicate high R2 relationships between observed and computed values.. Read More»
