Activated sludge treatment plants

REF 23203

The objectives of this training are:

1. Mastering the theoretical basics of the activated sludge
2. Set the control points of an activated sludge sewage water treatment plant
3. Conduct and interpret operating tests
4. Define, calculate and adjust settings
5. Adjust the ventilation settings, recirculation and extraction
   
   

The program of this training is the following:

Microbiology of activated sludge
Activated sludge ecology
Bacteria metabolism

Definitions of activated sludges parameters

Microscopic observation
Interpretation of tests and results

Calculations of nutrient inputs (nitrogen and phosphorus)

Supply, aeration, recirculation and sludges extraction : available technologies, database settings

Diagnosis of operation: extraction calculation, recirculation and ventilation settings

Malfunctions : abundance, foaming
