Research on COD Soft Measurement Technology Based on Multi-Parameter Coupling Analysis Method

Abstract

This paper presents a soft measurement technique for COD (Chemical Oxygen Demand) based on the multiparameter coupling analysis method. First, through mechanism analysis and correlation analysis of historical data during the measurement process, water quality parameters, such as hydrogen potential (PH), dissolved oxygen (DO), turbidity (TU), and electrical conductivity (EC), can be used to estimate COD values. To further improve the estimation accuracy of the water quality parameter model, we adopted a modeling method combining a BP neural network and support vector machine, which showed an average relative error of 6.13% and an absolute coefficient of up to 0.9605. Finally, experiments in a lake environment demonstrate that this method shows excellent performance, with highly reliable and accurate prediction results.
