TP – 1269 An Introduction to Wastewater Pond Operation and Maintenance for Professional Engineers

Description

The information presented in this chapter covers various topics related to operations and maintenance, including control testing, safety, troubleshooting and optimizing operations of a pond system. Much that has been written on these topics in the past 30 years remains valuable, but may not be readily available. This technical paper  summarizes much of that information and brings it up to date. It introduces the basic tools used to monitor an operating pond treatment system and provides guidance when the system does not seem to be functioning as designed.
