Advanced Nitrification
Measuring for Effectiveness of Treatment
As a common theme through the Operator Bookshelf Series, the Diligent
Operator obsesses on quality data. The Diligent Operator knows the
data and direction of change and trend for all critical process parameters
EVERY DAY.
The following monitoring parameters are essential in proactively
controlling Nitrification.
Influent BOD Aeration Basin pH & Alkalinity Final Effluent NO2 Final Effluent TKN (Organic & Inorganic Nitrogen)
Influent NH4 Aeration Basin DO Final Effluent NO3 Final Effluent Chlorine Residual (if chlorine is used)
Influent pH Aeration Basin Temperature Final Effluent NH4 Final Effluent Fecal Coliform MPN
