“…Besides being a favorable segment because it is renewable and low cost, the production of lignocellulosic biomass presents several other benefits to offset the use of fossil fuels, such as increasing energy security in regions without abundant reserves of fossil fuels and avoiding competition with food crops (Field et al, 2008). Energy and chemicals produced from such resources are known to be universally used, however, the burning of fossil fuels exacerbates environmental challenges such as global warming, climate change, and pollution (Singh et al, 2020).…”

The economic progress associated with the consumption habits of society, in general, has presented increasing generation and accumulation of solid waste. This is because, in most cases, there is no proper reuse of waste in the production process. Given this scenario, the concept of Circular Economy (CE) arises, seeking to transform the linear production model, based on the concept of extract, produce, consume and dispose, into a circular model, in which materials must return to the production cycle (Siqueira & Moraes, 2009).

An artificial wetland is used to treat gray, waste, storm or industrial water. This is an engineering system that uses natural functions of vegetation, soil and organisms to provide secondary treatment to gray water. In the physical design of each artificial wetland, there are various action factors that must meet certain characteristics so that the level of gray-water pollution is reduced. In this sense, several design methodologies have been developed and reported in the literature, but some are customized designs and often do not meet the required decontamination objectives. This challenge increases as the complexity of the task in its structure also increases. Particularly in this work, a multi-objective evolutionary algorithm is used to optimize the physical design of a horizontal flow subsurface wetland (HFSW) for gray-water treatment. The study aims to achieve two objectives: first, to minimize the physical volume, and second, to maximize the contaminant removal efficiency. The defined objective functions depend on six design variables called hydraulic retention time, width, length, water depth inside the wetland, substrate depth and slope. Three constraint functions are also defined: removal efficiency greater than 95%, physical volume below 500 m3 and compliance with a length–width ratio is 3:1, varying the population size and number of generations equal to 200, 400, and 600. The set of solutions according to the number of generations as well as the Pareto front corresponds to the best solution that complies with the constraints of the problem of oversizing the HFSW, and the Pareto front shows the interaction between the objectives and their behavior, reflecting the problem’s nature as minimization–maximization.
