Description
The primary purpose of this course is to provide an overview of the activated sludge process control strategies, typical operational problems encountered during the process and the microbiology of the activated sludge process. Many operators only know now to physically operate their plants and depend on their engineers to guide them through problems. This class will give them a better understanding of what to do during an operational upset so they can react quicker and recover faster so that the NPDES permit is not violated. Knowing the basic process control strategies needed along with the microbiological reactions is the key to proper operation. By the attendees participating in the plant troubleshooting tour, they will experience first hand on how to troubleshoot their own systems.
