Presented by: Dr. Jerry Lin
Program consists of 6 Lamar Course lectures captured on video.
Total approximate run time 3.25 hours.
Analytical Protocol for Process Control
This presentation discusses the methods of characterizing refinery wastewater for its biological treatment. The physics, chemistry, biology and required laboratory equipment for the measurements are reviewed. The significance of each water quality parameter is related to the treatment process in terms of wastewater treatability. Specific topics include: overview of activated sludge process, measurements of wastewater quality (dissolved oxygen, biochemical oxygen demands, chemical oxygen demand, solids, nutrients, sludge volume index, etc.), monitoring of wastewater characteristics for treatment management and statistical treatment of water quality data.
Clarifier Troubleshooting & Advanced Solids Flux Analysis
This presentation reviews the growth phases and the associated floc characteristics of microorganisms. The solids balance analysis in secondary clarifiers is discussed. The application of actual plant Sludge Volume Index (SVI) data is programmed in an interactive demonstration of advanced State Point \ Solids Flux analysis. An interactive Solids Flux Predictive Model is presented. Specific topics include bacterial growth and substrate utilization in biological wastewater treatment, reactor and clarifier engineering for biological wastewater treatment, calculation of solids flux with adjustment optimizations, and analysis of solids transport in secondary clarifiers.
