Activated Sludge Troubleshooting & Optimization

Course Description
Need advanced, hands-on discussion and training related to activated sludge process control? Many students require advanced lessons in troubleshooting to build upon previous Activated Sludge Process Control training. After new experiences are obtained in operating their plants, additional hands-on troubleshooting and discussion with industry peers can help water & wastewater professionals further their process knowledge and ultimately enhance plant performance. In response to student feedback, Tetra Tech RTW is now pleased to provide a new course offering: ASPC Troubleshooting. This new course expands our continuum of training in the optimization and operation of an activated sludge system. Students will review and re-explore essential microbiology and biochemistry, analytical procedures and data evaluation for process control, mass balance and wasting control, and determination of appropriate return rates. However, beyond its examination of process controls, ASPC Troubleshooting explores the practice of basic plant troubleshooting through prepared case studies of actual plants whose operations were improved by Tetra Tech RTW personnel during site visits. Learn from the experience of others and explore with our experts the manner in which you might be able to achieve process improvements and dollar savings at your plant.

Your Instructors: Ronald G Schuyler, P.E., B.C.E.E., Joe R. Tamburini, P.E. & H. C. Laing, Ph.D.
