A statistical modeling tool called artificial neural network (ANN) is used in this work to predict the performance of wastewater treatment plant (WWTP).

The data were obtained from one of Sewage Treatment Plant in Malaysia. The input parameters for the ANN were BOD, SS, and COD of the influent, while the output parameters were combination of the effluent characteristics. The networks for single input-single output were compared with those of single input-multiple output. The ANN was developed for raw and screened data and the results were compared for both networks.
