The selection of suitable wastewater treatment solutions is a complex problem that requires the
careful consideration of many factors. With water at a premium and water consumption increasing, India is
facing a challenging time ahead, requiring effective water treatment solutions. The Wastewater Decision
Support Optimiser (WiSDOM) presented here is a user-friendly software package designed to aid in the
formulation and configuration of wastewater systems in developing countries such as India. WiSDOM
employees advanced multi-objective optimisation and decision analysis techniques to identify optimal
wastewater treatment options. It has been demonstrated that WiSDOM can adapt to a wide array of scenarios,
considering a range of contributing factors (technical, environmental, economic and social), enabling an
engineer to make more informed decisions.
