More on Wastewater Facility Process
Course Description
This module provides advanced instruction on wastewater biological and chemical process control, focusing on ORP interpretation, nitrification/denitrification dynamics, and instrument reliability. Learners learn maintenance and calibration practices for probes and meters, along with troubleshooting techniques that address inconsistent readings and process upsets. The course reinforces the use of process data to support informed operational decisions and maintain treatment performance.
Learning Objectives
1) Interpret ORP measurements in wastewater treatment
2) Understand nitrification and denitrification processes
3) Maintain and calibrate process instruments
4) Troubleshoot probe and meter readings
5) Apply process data to operational decisions
