• Navigating Through Uncharted Waters, Part Two: How Peter Ng Is Giving Back To His Community

  In Part Two of Navigating Through Uncharted Waters, we caught up with Peter Ng, a Wastewater Technician who continues to help get wastewater samples for Covid research. At the beginning of the pandemic, Ng was tapped to be a Disaster Service Worker for the City and County of San Francisco helping to deliver food to the vulnerable population as well as be a translator to senior citizens. As Ng explains, this was something he was always meant to do.

• Math Solutions Explained: Calculate Food-to-Microorganism (F-M) Ratio

  The food-to-microorganism (F-M) ratio is a process control numeric value advantageous to determine the proper number of microorganisms for the biological treatment process. The solution of calculating F-M ratio uses the influent volume of wastewater into an activated sludge system (flow MGD), incoming carbonaceous biochemical oxygen demand (CBOD) (mg/L) concentration into the aeration tank, mixed liquor volatile suspended solids (MLVSS) concentration (mg/L), and quantity (in gallons) of the respective aeration system.

• RTC-ST Improves Dairy Wastewater Operations & Costs

  Problem: A wastewater treatment plant in a large dairy facility was looking for ways to reduce chemical coagulant costs and labor to monitor and operate the dissolved air flotation (DAF) unit. Solution: The Hach® Real-Time Control for Sludge Thickening (RTC-ST) solution offers real-time coagulant analysis and optimizes dosage. This allows the facility to monitor and remove solids without over-dosing coagulant in the DAF.
