Biological Products:Bioaugmentation products for applications in Papermills, Refineries, Chemical, Tanneries, Municipalities, Textiles, Steel, Agriculture, Animal feedlot, Gun Powder plant, Food and Beverage- Dairy Products, Orange Juice factory, Wineries, Cookie factory, Vegetable processing plant, Meat packing, Barbecue Restaurant, Aquaculture, Ornamental Ponds for algae control, CAFO, Nursing homes, Military, Campgrounds, Universities, Regulatory agencies
Lab Services:Filamentous Identification Lab Service. One reason to identify filaments is to determine the filaments characteristics and then determine the type present. If the type is found out, a root cause can usually be associated with a particular filament. If the cause is known, then a correction can be made to alleviate problems. Chlorination is only a quick fix. Without process changes, filaments will grow back after chlorination. Wastewater Biomass Analyses and Cooling Tower Analyses also available
Training Materials:Training is an integral part of any job. Not everyone is at the same level of training. Many people want beginning concepts and basics. Some need technical information or troubleshooting. Some want equipment, technology or process information. We have developed a full set of Basic training, Advanced training, Filamentous Identification the Easy Way as well as custom training CD's Manuals. We also provide hands-on training classes and soon will have an Online "E-University".
Audits and Consulting:At Environmental Leverage, we have a team of experienced individuals who come into your plant with a fresh pair of eyes. The system is checked from influent to effluent. System optimization, equipment efficiency and operational excellence are key components explored. Key Benefits Equipment efficiency Total Cost of Operation reductions Reliability and safety An onsite audit is conducted to examine system parameters, process controls, and current monitor and control procedures. A physical walk-through is conducted, process flow diagrams are examined, previous design criteria are examined and current standard operating procedures are evaluated along with data logs.

Training Options-Classes and AuditsWhat's New!
We have just added "Virtual Audits" to our capabilities. Check out our new Services. We are in the process of developing an ""Online E-University" in order to meet the needs of our global customers that cannot travel to our public classes. Stay tuned for details and updates. Hands on Training classes
The greatest equipment and the most efficient, dedicated workers are
useless if they are not properly trained. At Environmental Leverage, we
have years of experience in many process areas and technical expertise on
equipment, systems and operations. Programs to optimize your system or
custom training can be tailored to increase the reliability and efficiency
of your plant.
At Environmental Leverage, we have developed numerous training materials in order to help our customers with their process controls. Many of our newsletters, tech tips or training sheets and handbooks have been developed due to customer problem solving experiences.

Spring 2010 "Filamentous Identification the easy way!" Lisbon, Portugal in coordination with University of Minho,, Simbiente and Aguas de Portugal
April-Canada- Industrial plant- private audit and Onsite Training Class
The pre-conference workshop will be on Monday, April 19. The workshop runs from 10 am to 3 pm with an hour break for lunch. The workshop title is “Bugs and Sludge” presented by the talented Tracy Finnegan of Environmental Leverage. The program centers on the microscopic examination of sludge. The variety and species is an indicator of the quality of the treatment. If you can, send one of your newer operators to take advantage of this training. The bulk of the program is topics near and dear to our hearts.
