In order to monitor, analyze plant performance, and decrease environmental pollution in wastewater treatment facilities, a model for fault detection must be developed. In this study, we examine different time and cost-efficient machine learning approaches to monitor the operation of a Waste Water Treatment Plant (WWTP) and identify plant faults as an alternative to human, laboratory-based time consuming, costly, and challenging techniques. This will allow us to develop a time and cost-efficient approach to detect such problems. To discover plant defects, we collect one year of unsupervised WWTP data and convert the data into supervised data. Using several machine learning algorithms based on water quality standard measurements (pH, BOD, COD, and suspended solid), we establish whether or not the data is valid.188-193en-USMachine learning algorithmsStatistical analysisMachine learningWater qualityWater pollutionClassification algorithmsWastewaterMachine learningFault detectionUnsupervised dataSupervised dataSewage disposal plants--Management.Water quality management.Conference Proceeding10.1109/ICCIT57492.2022.10055321
