Wastewater Process Control

Troubleshooting:Visual Observations, Monitor and Control

( This session is part of the training class that we normally

include in our Wastewater Seminars.)

Our class in November '04 was a great success. We not only learned in a class room environment, we applied some of the troubleshooting materials on a walk-through of a wastewater treatment plant. We performed lab tests and we performed a wastewater biomass analyses on some of the samples from a few of the attendees' wastewater treatment plant MLSS.

 

Thanks again to Andy Warmus and the Village of Algonquin for being such a great host!

 

 

We had a very successful "Filamentous Identification the Easy" Two day seminar at Flagg Creek Sanitary district. We want to thank them for hosting the class.

Stay tuned for details on our next class. . . .. . .

Earn CEU's towards your state requirements for Operator certification. We can work with all municipal and Industrial facilities to create a training program developed to provide you and your personnel training on the subjects that you need specific to your plant. A variety of topics can be covered.

There are  new regulations that require operators to complete a certain amount of hours of training each year and  additional  hours every three (3) years. Requirements do vary by state. Continuing education units or credits may vary by content applicability and state requirements.

All CEU's for initial qualifications or certificate renewal shall be subject to review for approval to insure that the training is applicable to wastewater treatment facility operation and meets CEU criteria.

Example of CEU's provided to operators that attended onsite training classes at their facility provided by Environmental Leverage. 6 CEU's were provided for two half days of training.
