Modelling of an ill-defined system such as the wastewater treatment plant is quite tedious and difficult. However, successful and optimal operation of the system relied upon a suitable model. Most of the available developed models were applied to industrial wastewater treatment plants. This paper presents adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) model for carbon removal in the Bunu domestic wastewater treatment plant in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. For comparison feed-forward neural network (FFNN) was used. Simulation results revealed that ANFIS model is slightly better than the FFNN model, thus proving that the model is a reliable and valuable tool for the wastewater treatment plant.
