| Summary: | One of our society’s challenges today is water resources management due to its importance for human life. The monitoring of various substances present in wastewater is a crucial part of the process of Wastewater Treatment Plants (WWTPs). One of these substances is the influent’s pH, which plays a fundamental role in the nitrification and nitration processes. Hence, this paper presents a study to forecast the influent pH in a WWTP for the next two days. For this purpose, several candidate models were conceived, tunned and evaluated, taking into account the one-dimensional Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) considering two distinct approaches in the Pooling layer: the channels’ last and the channels’ first. The best candidate model obtained a Mean Absolute Error (MAE) of 0.257, following the channel’s last approach, compared to the channels’ first that obtained a MAE of 0.272.
