Course Description:

This four-course series is an overview of analyses commonly performed in a wastewater laboratory. Each session will focus on the “why” we analyze for a particular parameter as well as the “how.” Sessions are designed to be interactive with poll questions to monitor understanding and step by step demonstrations of procedures and calculations.

Session 1: Sampling, Safety, Quality Control, pH, fecal coliform, chlorine residual 7/12/22
Session 2: Residues – TSS, TS, TVS, TVSS, TDS 7/26/22
Session 3: BOD, COD, TOC 8/9/22
Session 4: Nutrients – ammonia, TKN, phosphorus, nitrate, nitrite 8/23/22

  • How to perform the method
  • Associated quality control
  • Tips for optimal performance
  • Calculations associated with the method
  • Common issues with method performance and troubleshooting tips
