Abstract In this paper, by integrating neural network approximators, a data-based composite control technique is developed with critic learning implementation and wastewater treatment verification. The iterative adaptive critic framework is established involving dual heuristic dynamic programming (DHP), so as to obtain an intelligent optimal controller. Besides, a steady control input is computed with the help of the neural identifier. Then, by combining the DHP controller and the steady control input, an effective composite control strategy is derived and applied to the proposed wastewater treatment platform. Through conducting experiments, it is observed that the dissolved oxygen concentration and the nitrate level can be maintained at setting points successfully, which results in an intelligent wastewater treatment system.

1 Introduction Under the situation of global environmental degradation, freshwater resources shortage has become a widely serious phenomenon and wastewater recycling has been regarded an effective channel to address this issue (Iratni and Chang 2019; Li et al. 2018; Han et al. 2019). As one of the core attentions for treating wastewater, ensuring effluent quality is actually an optimization problem to a large extent. Hence, there is a great need of developing advanced optimal control techniques during wastewater treatment processes. Nevertheless, due to the complexities of such practical processes, including nonlinearities, uncertainties, and the actuality of unk
