In this online exclusive video, Greg Moser, superintendent of the Slinger (Wisconsin) Wastewater Treatment Plant, gives viewers a detailed look at wastewater treatment operations and talks about the challenges his crew has faced getting its phosphorus discharges under control. Faced with a $6 million upgrade cost to reach a new .075 mgL phosphorus limit, the facility's operators took classes to learn what they could do to help lower phosphorus levels. See how they managed to get discharges under control six months out of the year in 2018 against all odds, and how they plan to improve on that with a Bio-P process.
