Abstract :
This paper presents an advanced control structure exploiting a GPC master-slave solution to regulate the oxygen and nitrification process of a simulated water treatment plant. The slave controller regulates the process variable, whilst the master controller changes the set-point for the slave controller depending on the output behaviour of the system. The presented structure outperforms significantly the standard control structure. Different weather conditions are simulated and analysed for comparison
