The aim of the study is to develop and validate machine learning methods for calculating the parameters of aeration tanks of wastewater treatment plants at the stage of technical and commercial proposal. Research methods included: generalization of known scientific and technical results, theoretical studies were conducted using the theory of fluid motion in the boundary layer, the theory of kinetics of enzymatic reactions of organic pollutants in wastewater, machine learning methods and statistical decision theory. Experimental studies were conducted on a laboratory setup to study the kinetics of wastewater sedimentation. As a result of the study, a model of the XGBoost algorithm was developed, which successfully coped with the task of optimization of calculations, providing high accuracy, and this, in turn, opens up new opportunities for  \nimproving the efficiency of design of wastewater treatment plants.  \n1 Introduction  \nIn recent years, machine learning (ML) methods have become actively applied in various fields, including ecology and engineering design. Machine learning is attractive due to its ability to analyze large amounts of data, identify complex dependencies and adapt the operation of individual pieces of equipment and systems as a whole to new conditions, which makes it a promising tool for optimizing calculations of aeration tank process parameters.  \nThe main document regulating the calculation of technological parameters of wastewater treatment facilities in the Russian Federation is the Code of Rules. The updated version [1-3], provides designers with an opportunity to use alternative methods of calculation of biological treatment facilities, including mathematical models. This opens new horizons for engineers, but at the same time poses them a difficult task – the choice of methodology in order to minimize risks and ensure the required quality of wastewater treatment. This issue becomes especially relevant in the design of aeration tanks .  \nIn 2018-2019, papers were published in [4-6], which made a significant contribution to the development of computational methods. In recent years, the controversy around this  \n* [Corresponding author: nkoleva@mail.ru](Corresponding author: nkoleva@mail.ru)  \n© The Authors, published by EDP Sciences.

In this context, special attention should be paid to the studies [7], which provide an in-depth analysis of aeration basin calculation methods, including ATV-DVWK-A131E, Danilovich-Epov methodology and ASM2d.  \nThe authors conclude that the most correct methods are those based on enzyme kinetics formulas. However, the choice of a specific approach is left to the technologist, who should take into account the specifics of the project and the requirements for the quality of treated water.  \n2 Research results  \nThe design of aerobic wastewater treatment plants, particularly aeration tanks, is a complex and multi-stage process that requires consideration of many factors such as wastewater composition, activated sludge load, oxygen concentration, temperature conditions and other parameters.
