Abstract
The present study focuses on the development and implementation of a real time predictive controller for regulation of discharges in a combined sewer system currently being built in a rural catchment of Luxembourg. The main objective of the application for optimised real time control is to minimise combined sewer overflow emissions into natural water courses. The paper investigates the use of a simple hydraulic model to describe the transfer phenomena in the network and explains why accurate rainfall forecasts are not necessarily needed. The effects of the different parameters of the controller with regard to different rain situations are also discussed.
