A probabilistic causal machine learning framework trained on long-term monitoring data from a full-scale wastewater plant can predict N2O hot moments and convert interpretable outputs into risk-decision rules for adaptive aeration and load regulation to reduce emissions.
Researchers developed a probabilistic causal machine learning framework using long-term online monitoring data from a full-scale biological wastewater treatment plant to address intermittent nitrous oxide emission hot moments. The approach combined predictive modeling with cohort-based SHAP for nonlinear effects, LiNGAM-based causal discovery for pathway identification, and copula-based joint probability analysis for risk quantification.
