Wasting Strategies
This course focuses on wasting in the activated sludge process, a crucial activity for controlling WWTP biology. It covers the role of wasting, control strategies, the importance of solids retention time (SRT), key operating parameters, and practical considerations for effective decision-making.
Introduction to the activated sludge process
This course covers the Activated Sludge Process (ASP), a key wastewater treatment method using microorganisms to remove BOD and ammonia. Ideal for new operators or those needing a refresher, it introduces basic concepts and operator responsibilities.
Optimizing polymer use
This course dives into the use of polymers in wastewater treatment, a significant operating expense for many WWTPs. It compiles industry expertise, covering polymer activation, best practices, and efficiency strategies. Participants will gain a clear roadmap to optimize polymer usage and reduce overall operating costs.
N-Removal with the Activated Sludge Process
This course dives into the details of how we remove nitrogen with the activated sludge process. It introduces basic concepts and discusses typical operator roles/responsibilities.
P-Removal with the Activated Sludge Process
This course dives into the details of how we remove phosphorus with the activated sludge process. It introduces basic concepts of biological and chemical removal and discusses typical operator roles/responsibilities.
Sludge Densification: What, Why, & How?
Sludge densification is an emerging technology for intentionally growing a biomass in the activated sludge process that settles really well. This course will introduce basic details of what it is, why we would want to pursue it at a WWTP, and how might we go about doing it.
