Fault detection and monitoring is essentially important in wastewater treatment to ensure that safety, environmental regulations compliance, maintenance and operation of the Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) are under control. Many researchers have developed methods in fault detection and monitoring such as fuzzy logic, parameter estimation, neural network and Principal Component Analysis (PCA). In studies involving data and signal model approach, PCA is the most appropriate method used in this work. Besides when using PCA, the dimensionality of the data, noise and redundancy can be reduce. However, PCA is only suitable for data with mean constant or steady state data. The use of PCA can also increase false alarm and produce false fault in a plant such as WWTP. Modifications of PCA need to be done to overcome the problems and hence, enhanced methods of PCA are proposed in this work. The enhanced methods are Multiscale PCA (MSPCA) and Recursive PCA (RPCA), which are appropriate for offline monitoring test and online monitoring test, respectively. To see the effectiveness of the methods, they were applied into the european Co-operation in the field of Scientific and Technical Research (COST) simulation benchmark WWTP. The results from the simulation plant were then applied in a real WWTP, IWK Bunus Regional Sewage Treatment Plant (RSTP).
