Purification of polluted water and return back to the agriculture field is the wastewater treatment for plants. Contaminated water causes illness and health emergencies of public. Also, health risk due release of toxic contaminants brings problem to all living beings. At present, sensors are used in waste water treatment and transfer data via internet of things (IoT). Prediction of wastewater quality content which is presence of total nitrogen (T-N) and total phosphorous (T-P) elements, chemical oxygen demand (COD), biochemical demand (BOD), and total suspended solids (TSS) is associated with eutrophication that should be prevented. This may leads to algal bloom and spoils aquatic life which is consumed by human. The presence of nitrogen and phosphorous elements is in the content of wastewater, and these elements are associated with eutrophication which should be prevented. Adsorption of T-N and T-P activated carbon was predictable as one of the most promising methods for wastewater treatment. Many research works have been done. The issues are inefficiency in the prediction of wastewater treatment. To overcome this issue, this paper proposed fusion of B-KNN with the ELM algorithm that is used. The accuracy of the BKNN-ELM algorithm in classification of water quality status produced the highest accuracy of the highest accuracy which is K=9 and k=10 with rate of accuracy which is 93.56%, and the lowest accuracy is K=1 of 65.34%. Experiment evaluation shows that a total suspended solid predicted by proposed model is 91 with accuracy of 93%. The relative error rate of prediction is 12.03 which is lesser than existing models.
