Beyond regulatory compliance

Sponsors

Date: 07:00:00 - Oct 16 2019

Speakers: Melvyn Lam

Moderators: Tom Lynch CChem FRSC

The ability to accurately determine organic loading and organic removal efficiencies go beyond regulatory compliance requirements. By acquiring real-time organic data at upstream treatment steps, immense opportunities to optimize a WWTP’s performance exists. Using TOC data to monitor early treatment steps, empowers operators with the knowledge to make critical process decisions. Decisions that if not made in a timely matter, would lead to an inability to manage varying wastewater influent and validate carbon levels as well as equipment failures.

What you’ll learn

How TOC can help optimize upstream treatment processes and enable industrial water reuse
Differences in TOC technologies
Sievers patented Supercritical Water Oxidation technology and why it is best suited for harsh upstream wastewater samples
Examples and case studies of how TOC can be utilized
