Description
In the activated sludge process return activated sludge control and its impacts on other process control paraments, e.g. settling characteristics, slduge age is critical. The methods for determining the return activated sludge flow rates are explained and the mathematics of calculations are demonstrated. The purpose of the course is to expose the operator the different ways the return sludge flowrate can be determined so that the operator can better control the activated sludge process. Interactive calculations and graphics are employed to keep the interest levels elevated for an engaging and informative learning experience.
