a very good presentation of wwtp ops, short and to the point for all. i worked in wastewater treatment both industrial and municipal plants for 35 yrs before my retirement in 2013. scada was the best thing to happen for wwtp ops. it started ~ 15 yrs ago in my old plant, made observation, plant control, pump changes, etc. much easier and catching main pump failures quick before overflowing sewage from manholes could contaminate rivers and streams. more easy to make programming changes to also as needs changed. also reduced labor needs and cost.
hi david wells :) i'm a student from philippines and we are tasked to make a wastewater treatment plant design along with its process components and stuffs. i am wondering if you could help me since you've had an experience working on such plant. here's my email add: aldaymay@gmail.com. i'm hoping that you could help me. thank you and God bless
This is so cool. I am an electrician that does new construction/rehabs of wastewater plants. Helpers always ask how the plants work so from now on I think I'll send them here to get a good overview of the process flow and control systems. Thanks again.
The animation is very informative, but I would think it would be easier to understand if there were a voice over explaining the gauges that are shown in detail. Well done.
@@danielowen440 She was making a statement... She did not say "This is...". You assumed she said "This is..." Also, when you study water engineering and waste water treatment, YOU MUST STUDY environmental engineering, i.e. taking several courses like Wastewater/solid waste Analysis and Treatment, hazardous waste and sustainability, Chemical and microbial processes in the environment and the list goes on..
i am mechanical engineering 5th year student. i want to present my thesis by making different animations. so, can you help me by telling the software you have used to make this? thanks!
use a multiple stages of digester which are at higher places so only the most particles remain at first stages and half the work done since multiple layers of filter gives less efficient and effective control over water quality in less time
Why do they add in polymer in the final stages before they dump out the so called fresh water? I thought polymer was what makes plastic. Found this video trying to find information on oil waste water being used in food irrigation in the US
Eric Quiroga The polymer was added during "dewatering" - where the sludge (which has already been separated from the water) has most of the remaining water removed, in order to reduce the volume of the sludge, making it easier to dispose of. The polymer binds with the tiny sludge particles, causing them to coagulate, which makes it easier to separate the water.
the flow chart for the process waste water treatment is correct, but is very important to eliminate the Phosphorus - over P that mean only one family of algae will excessive grow, choking another... what is happening with sludge, how is inactivated?
