Some facilities discharge wastewater at concentrations far above (i.e., stronger than) typical residential wastewater. If the systems receiving this wastewater are sized using assumptions valid for residential-strength wastewater, substantial performance problems and premature system failures are likely soon to follow. This one-hour seminar is tailored to provide insights for solving this important issue from multiple perspectives.
