We are excited to announce that we have invited Wastewater Microbiologist Toni Glymph Martin to provide this training about Lab Methods.
Unlock the secrets of the microscopic workforce that powers your treatment plant. This course bridges microbiological theory and practical process control, empowering operators to manage systems with scientific precision.
Participants will learn how to harness microorganisms to optimize nutrient removal and ensure effluent quality. The course focuses on application, providing tools to identify early warning signs of treatment upsets and troubleshoot system issues before compliance violations.
What You Will Learn:
- Optimize biology by understanding microbial functions and developing strategies to maximize nutrient removal.
- Proactively diagnose specific microscopic indicators of impending treatment disruptions.
- Troubleshoot effectively using proven process control methodologies to resolve operational challenges and restore system stability.
Bridge Design & Operation: Learn to align physical plant operations with biological requirements for optimal efficiency.
Target Audience: Wastewater Treatment Plant Operators, Laboratory Technicians, Plant Managers, and Environmental Engineers seeking expertise in biological process control.
