With　the　rapid　development　of　treatment　technologies,　equipment　and　autocontrol　techniques,　the　basic　requirements　of　equipment　stability　and　autocontrol　level　for　sequencing　batch　reactor　(SBR)　processes　have　been　achieved,　and　SBR　processes　have　been　widely　applied　and　hugely　successful.　Most　SBR　wastewater　treatment　plants　have　realized　basic　autocontrol　(on/off　or　PID　control),　however,　fixed-time　autocontrol　has　had　evident　shortcomings.　Therefore,　many　researchers　have　focused　on　the　establishment　of　real-time　control　strategies　for　SBR　reactors　which　are　based　on　control　technologies.　In　this　paper,　the　latest　research　progress　and　practical　application　of　real-time　strategies　for　SBR　processes　are　reviewed　and　the　advantages　and　disadvantages　of　real-time　control　strategies　are　classified　and　summarized.　Although　the　real-time　control　strategy　for　SBR　processes　has　great　superiority　in　aspects　of　optimal　control　and　energy　saving,　there　are　many　unsolved　problems　in　practical　application.　By　analyzing　the　problems　existing　in　the　application,　the　future　development　direction　of　real-time　control　strategy　for　SBR　process　is　indicated.
