role of artificial intelligence network model for predicting of iron, manganese and ammonia of drinking water in a green sand fixed bed

Usually iron and manganese are found in groundwater and ammonia is one of common pollutants in urban, agriculture and industrial wastewater# fixed bed of green sand was used as adsorbent system to remove iron, manganese and ammonia from aqueous solution# flow rate of aqueous solution was changed from 50 to 80 ml/min and mass of adsorbent was changed from 15 to 25 gr and the change of outlet concentration with time was recorded at each flow rate and mass of adsorbent# the outlet concentration predicted by using artificial neural network (ann) and bayesian belief network (bbn)# finally results have been compared with experimental date and a good agreement has been seen between experimental and predicted concentration#
