standard solutions and titration, use of spectrophotometer, sampling
and preservation of samples, settleable solids, sludge solids, mixed
liquor, sludge age, dissolved oxygen and BOD, pH, chlorine residual,
ammonia nitrogen, total coliform and fecal coliform tests. Bench sheets
/ reporting.
Settleability and Loss of Solids, Fall 2008
The most important goal of the treatment operation is solids-liquid separation. This class discusses the mechanical, physical, chemical and biological elements involved. Topics discussed include: clarifiers design and formulas, solids loading, solids pumping, floc formations, role of nitrogen and phosphorus in the treatment process, the effect of nitrification and dissolved oxygen on solids settleability, sludge blanket depth, settleability test and the settlometer data sheet.
Biological Nitrogen Removal, Fall 2008
A detailed discussion of the Nitrification/Denitrification process. A presentation of the nitrifying bacteria and the role of Autotrophs and Heterotrophs in removing nitrogen from wastewater. Aerobic, anoxic and anaerobic zones. Factors affecting the bacterial growth and the rate of nitrification. Complete and partial nitrification. Loss of nitrification. Preventive and corrective measures to maintain nitrification during cold weather. Nitirification/Denitirification plant design. Pre-Nitrification and Post-Nitrification.
Parasites and Pathogens, Fall 2008
A review of the significant disease agents found in wastewater, sludge and treatment processes which present actual or potential health risks to wastewater personnel. Disease agents reviewed include viruses, parasitic protozoa and worms, and pathogenic bacteria and fungi, including HIV and Hepatitis A viruses. Also covered in this course are the transmission of diseases, hygiene measures and immunization.
The Microlife - Microscopy Workshop, Fall 2008
This hand on laboratory session is designed to acquaint operators, technicians and engineers with bright-field and phase contrast microscopic techniques used to evaluate operational and plant upset conditions. Laboratory exercises include the use and care of the microscope, sampling techniques, and slide preparation. Activated sludge and foam samples are provided and used in the workshop. Participants are encouraged to bring their own microscopes and samples. Learn about the significant organisms that inhabit the activated sludge process and their positive and negative roles performed in the stabilization of wastewaters and sludge. Organisms reviewed include: actinomycetes (Nocardia and related genera), protozoa, rotifers, free living nematodes, water bears, flatworms, and filamentous organisms (introduction, control, and identification)
Cause & Effect/Data Interpretation and Calculation, Onsite
This is a troubleshooting course looking at situations that could occur in a wastewater treatment plant: what the cause could be and what the effect is then most important what to do about it. You will need a 10 digit calculator. This course will include: Classroom instruction Work groups working on specific causes and effects Work groups working on daily operations of the facility Work groups on plant calculations You are encouraged to bring the following to class: Your daily lab results Your daily flow totals throughout the plant Your tanks sizes, volumes, surface areas, etc.
Multiple Choice Questions Fall 2008
Multiple Choice Questions is designed to help operators test
themselves before taking their State exam. “The Best Plan to
Pass the Certification Exam” is the most effective and practical
approach to work the test questions to achieve the best score the
operator can get. 700 multiple-choice questions will be used in the
course. Questions will cover all areas and levels of the exam. In
addition, a 100 multiple choice question exam will be given at the
end of the class. The test will be graded and the students will know
their scores in the class. Each year many of the students who attend
this class achieve top scores in the State exams.
