In this podcast presented by Treatment Plant Operator magazine, editor Ted Rulseh talks with special guest Ron Trygar of the University of Florida Training, Research and Education for Environmental Occupations (UF TREEO) Center about process control strategies.

Trygar shares with listeners some practices that help optimize operations for the best effluent quality, and how to listen to what the plant is telling you. He also talks about technological advancements in the industry that allow for continuous online monitoring of pH, DO nutrients and more, and how operators can use those tools without allowing them to replace actual hands-on monitoring.
