Learning-Based Model Predictive Control for a Wind-Powered Fresh Water Production Plant with Integrated Electricity Production

Growth of the population, industry and agriculture increases the demand for fresh water. However, with only a small portion of the water on earth being suitable for direct human use and consumption, this growth makes water scarcity an increasing problem. Seawater desalination is an effective method to counter such water stress. Reverse Osmosis ...
