Machine learning (ML) and Artificial intelligence (AI) are rapidly emerging as disruptive technologies being applied to water and wastewater systems. The true value of ML/AI depends not on algorithms alone, but on how effectively they are integrated with engineering and operations judgment and workforce capabilities. 

This presentation examines practical ML/AI applications across the water sector – including multi-day influent flow forecasting, use of soft- sensors for biological process insights – grounded in real operational constraints and scalability across diverse facilities. 

Drawing on applied research and innovative real-world implementation, we’ll highlight the value of modern ML/AI technologies, highlighting where ML/AI provides enhanced value, reliability and operational readiness – and where limitations remain. 

The presentation emphasizes a human-AI collaboration framework, positioning ML/AI as a meta-technology enabling and augmenting, not replacing, operator expertise and engineering reasoning.

Presented by Sandeep Sathyamoorthy
Director of Water Innovation and technology, Stantec
