Activated Sludge Process Control
Please join us this spring for the NEW Two-Day Activated Sludge Process Control. Indigo Water Group and WasteWater Technology Trainers have teamed up to create a two day activated sludge process control training class. Like our popular Wastewater Cram, this two day course is loaded with great information.

Meet the Instructor
As
WasteWater Technology Trainers' primary instructor, Eric Wahlberg is a rare breed: operator, engineer, and Ph.D. rolled up into one high-energy, dynamic presenter. His Math for Operators has been a highly attended offering at the Tri-State Conference for more than six years. The Water Environment Federation awarded Eric its 1995 Eddy Medal, given for outstanding research, its 1997 Gascoigne Medal, given for making a significant contribution to operations, and its 2007 Morgan Medal, given for making significant contributions to solving operations problems. Public Works identified Eric as a 2008 Trendsetter for the activated sludge process control and performance tests he has developed over the years. He has written and presented extensively and is a nationally renowned expert in primary and secondary clarifiers and activated sludge process control.
Course Agenda
The objective of this class is to give activated sludge front-line supervisors and operators, and process control operators and engineers, a more in-depth understanding of the activated sludge process. With this understanding, effluent quality variability and process energy usage can be reduced. Topics to be presented include: wastewater characterization, biological N & P removal, the importance of sludge quality, measuring and controlling sludge quality, WAS flow control, BOD conversion vs. removal, RAS flow optimization, secondary clarifier performance diagnostic testing, and a state point analysis.
