Introduction to Clarifier State Point Analysis
This presentation builds the foundation for understanding the process variables in the operation of Secondary Clarifiers in a biological Activated Sludge treatment design. In particular the inter-relationships of the Clarifier process variables are quantified. The Clarifier State Point Analysis is examined from 2 perspectives: Solids Settling & Solids Thickening. Process control adjustment strategies are derived from various results of the State Point Analysis. The value of the State Point Analysis tool is interactively demonstrated for achieving quantified process control of Secondary Clarifiers.

Process Modeling & Statistical Techniques
This presentation builds a foundation for understanding Biokinetic Theory & Principles. The value of using kinetic rate data across a wide range of parameters is interactively demonstrated. The practical use of Statistical Analysis as a process control tool across multi- variant platforms is examined. Experimental Design using Statistical Analysis is illustrated as a valuable process control tool. The use of Statistical Analysis as a pre-qualifying stage in the development of Physical Models in presented.
