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.
