在人类世时代,空气质量监测是欧洲和国际所有部门政策的主轴,包括废水处理厂(WWTP)。具有适当传感设备的无人机系统(UAS)为空气质量和气味监测提供了先进的技术。此外,无人机(UAV)摄影测量已应用于土木工程中,环境(水)质量评估和最近的工业设施监测。这项研究是对现代设备和实施的最新进展和局限性的系统回顾。尽管他们无懈可击的灵活性和效率,上述技术在污水处理厂远程监控中的应用还很少,局部,只涉及特定的方面。ThemainfindingofthereviewwastheliteratureofadescribedUASforWWTPmonitoringintheliterature.因此,为了填补这个空白,weproposeafit-for-purposeremotemonitoringsystemconsistingofaUASwithaplatformthatwouldintegratealltherequiredsensorsforairquality(i.e.,H2S的排放,NH3、NOx、SO2,CH4,CO,CO2,VOCs,和PM)和气味监测,用于摄影测量结构健康监测(SHM)和废水/废水特性的多光谱和热像仪(例如,颜色,温度,等。)的WWTP。它构成了一部小说,改善污水处理厂可持续管理的最高综合方法。具体来说,适合用途的WWTPUAS将启动的开发,正在促进管理者的决策,行政管理部门,和政策制定者,在操作条件和故障情况下,事故或自然灾害。此外,这将大大减少污水处理厂的运营支出,确保人员和人口健康标准,和当地的可持续性。
In the ongoing Anthropocene era, air quality monitoring constitutes a primary axis of European and international policies for all sectors, including Waste Water Treatment Plants (WWTPs). Unmanned Aerial Systems (UASs) with proper sensing equipment provide an edge technology for air quality and odor monitoring. In addition, Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) photogrammetry has been used in civil engineering, environmental (water) quality assessment and lately for industrial facilities monitoring. This study constitutes a systematic review of the late advances and limitations of germane equipment and implementations. Despite their unassailable flexibility and efficiency, the employment of the aforementioned technologies in WWTP remote monitoring is yet sparse, partial, and concerns only particular aspects. The main finding of the review was the lack of a tailored UAS for WWTP monitoring in the literature. Therefore, to fill in this gap, we propose a fit-for-purpose remote monitoring system consisting of a UAS with a platform that would integrate all the required sensors for air quality (i.e., emissions of H2S, NH3, NOx, SO2, CH4, CO, CO2, VOCs, and PM) and odor monitoring, multispectral and thermal cameras for photogrammetric structural health monitoring (SHM) and wastewater/effluent properties (e.g., color, temperature, etc.) of a WWTP. It constitutes a novel, supreme and integrated approach to improve the sustainable management of WWTPs. Specifically, the developments that a fit-for-purpose WWTP UAS would launch, are fostering the decision-making of managers, administrations, and policymakers, both in operational conditions and in case of failures, accidents or natural disasters. Furthermore, it would significantly reduce the operational expenditure of a WWTP, ensuring personnel and population health standards, and local area sustainability.
