We compare three concrete ways to ground a frozen Qwen2.5-32B-Instruct model in an architecturally interpretable wastewater simulator (CCSS-IX): a live simulator oracle (Method 1), structured parameter injection (Method 2), and a Decoupled Recall-Reasoning (DRR) retriever (Method 3). On a 198-question causal benchmark the three reach 99.5%, 79%, and 75.8%, forming a deployment ladder above the strongest retrieval-augmented baseline at 48%. The DRR retriever has 110M parameters and trains per plant in ~17 seconds; after cross-plant transfer to a biologically distinct plant it still reaches 88%, while Method 2's static table cannot transfer. On a 60-question counterfactual benchmark only Method 3 handles queries about what happens after an intervention: +16.3 pp over Method 2, paired 95% CI [+7.1, +26.4] pp, with 100% on the timescale and operating-regime categories. On the AI2 Reasoning Challenge (ARC) with an OpenBookQA fact corpus, the same selective-retrieval mechanism reaches 79% versus unconstrained Llama-3.1-8B 76% and full-injection 74%, a +3 pp out-of-domain replication that argues against a result specific to wastewater treatment. We provide the first single-simulator comparison of live tool-use, static parameter injection, and learned numerical-parameter retrieval for industrial causal question answering.
