Systems and methods relating to effective management of fluid infrastructure

A fluid stream management system comprising:

• one or more downstream processing sub-systems, each of which is associated with one or more distant fluid treatment facilities and comprises:
• one or more fluid treatment facility sensors disposed inside one or more of said distant fluid treatment facilities for providing a flow condition measurement for one or more of said distant fluid treatment facilities, wherein said flow condition measurements provide information regarding at least one of transport, storage and treatment of one or more of said input fluid streams inside each of said distant fluid treatment facility;
• one or more pre-processing flow sensors for facilitating determination of one or more of said flow condition attribute values of one or more of said input fluid streams prior to entering each of said distant fluid treatment facility;
• one or more neural networks, each of which comprises:
• an input layer that is communicatively coupled to one or more of said fluid treatment facility sensors and/or one or more of said pre-processing flow sensors and configured to receive said flow condition measurements of one or more of said input fluid streams flowing into each of said distant fluid treatment facility;
• one or more intermediate layers, based upon one or more of said flow condition measurements, calculate an initial distant flow condition attribute value that is not a real time value;
• an output layer that is capable of outputting said initial distant flow condition attribute value;
• a cascading treatment processor communicatively coupled to said output layer and includes or is also communicatively coupled to a hydrological information database that has stored thereon historical hydrological information, wherein, during a processing operation, said cascading treatment processor, based upon said historical hydrological information obtained from said hydrological information database, predicts one or more predicted modified contribution values and one or more predicted modified flow condition attribute values to further predict a predicted modified total load value for each of said distant fluid treatment facility;
• multiple fluid flow controllers, each of which is coupled to said cascading treatment processor and is designed to be coupled to at least one or more of flow-directing devices such that at least one of said flow-directing devices is associated with at least one of said fluid flow controllers, wherein during an operative state of one or more of said fluid flow controllers, at least one of said fluid flow controllers adjust fluid flow through at least one of said flow-directing devices towards one or more of said distant fluid treatment facilities such that, for each of said distant fluid treatment facilities, a sum of at least one of a real time total load value and at least one of said predicted modified total load value is minimized, wherein said real time total load value of one or more of said distant fluid treatment facilities is based upon measurements obtained from one or more of said distant fluid treatment facility sensors.
