Apparatus and method for analyzing chemical system data
First Claim
1. A water chemistry analysis apparatus, comprising:
- sensors to obtain water chemistry data characterizing the chemical activity of a chemical system;
an analytical model processor to generate model predictions for said chemical system; and
an artificial intelligence processor to process said water chemistry data and said model predictions, which in combination constitutes over specified system data with more known water chemistry data than unknown model predictions, said artificial intelligence processor generating water chemistry diagnostic information from said over specified system data.

Abstract
A power plant water chemistry analysis apparatus and method relies upon water chemistry sensors to obtain power plant water chemistry data characterizing the chemical activity of a power plant water system. An analytical model processor is used to generate model predictions for the power plant water system. A statistical data fitting processor selects screened data from the power plant water chemistry data that corresponds to the model predictions. The screened data is processed by an artificial intelligence processor to derive power plant water chemistry diagnostic information. The artificial intelligence processor includes an expert system, rule base, plant water chemistry system simulator, and pattern recognition module.
