Excellent video! He really explains the basics of wastewater without getting to in depth about the biology and chemistry of wastewater nutrient removal.
As everybody said on your previous video, this is very well done, thank you ! Moreover you speak very clearly so foreign students like me can understand well what you teach !
Hate to be a bore but for your information the chemist Kjeldahl (mentioned around 9 minutes in) worked in brewing rather than wastewater. He was employed by Carslberg in Copenhagen and the method he developed was primarily aimed at establishing protein levels in barley and malt - nitrogen being a necessary component of all protein compounds and protein being undesirable from the point of view of final alcohol content.
Hello, I am doing research on wastewater treatment. I want to thank you as I have learned so much from this lecture. I'd like to ask what your thoughts on the new strain SND5? Strain SND5 simultaneously removes ammonium, nitrite, and nitrate at an average rate of 2.85, 1.98, and 2.42 mg-N/L/h, respectively. This strain removes the need of two separate reactors and does not require oxygen reducing cost of electricity as much as 65%. Is this a new revolutionary strain that will change wastewater treatment forever?
from the BOD removal process to Nitrate removal, do we have to settle the sludge first before entering the nitrate tank? or the settle process after the nitrate tank? thank you
What eludes me in MLE scheme is whether the feed is constantly open or water is multiply recycled in the closed loop, and if yes, how much sewer water is added at every cycle.
LOVE the video ! extremely helpful but I'm a little confused .. when does nitrogen convert to ammonia ? if its in the activated sludge like you stated @ 13:30(1st step , BOD removal ) OR does it come in naturally with organic nitrogen ( Kjeldahl classied them as the two forms of nitrogen entering naturally @ 9:40 ).. Can someone please clarify this for me ?
Bacteria could be present in incoming waste water. On the way to coming to the treatment plant they may convert some of the organic nitrogen to ammonia. so both are present in the incoming water. But most of the conversion is done in secondary treatment i.e. in the aeration tank.

What if the plant uses a Dissolved Air Flotation system for secondary clarification? it's still possible the return of the activated sludge to the first anoxic chamber?
The biggest idea I am trying to express is tunneling aqueducts from the coast, in this case the west coast of the USA inland to feed combination geothermal power and sea water desalination plants. The idea seems to be so big that no one has considered it possible but I believe it is not only possible but it is necessary. For over a century the fossil water contained in aquifers has been pumped out to feed agriculture, industry and municipal water needs. The natural water cycle cant refill fossil water deposits that were filled 10,000 years ago when the glaciers melted after the last ice age. Without refilling these aquifers there is not much of a future for the region of the United states. As a result ground levels in some areas of the San Joaquin Valley have subsided by more than 30 feet. Similar fossil water depletion is happening in other regions all around the world. TBM and tunneling technology has matured and further developments in the industry are poised to speed up the tunneling process and it's these tunnels that are the only way to move large volumes of water from the ocean inland. The water is moved inland to areas where it can be desalinated in geothermal plants producing clean water and power. In many cases the water will recharge surface reservoirs where it will be used first to make more hydro power before being released into rivers and canal systems. It's very important however to not stop tunneling at these first stops but to continue several legs until the water has traveled from the ocean under mountain ranges to interior states. Along the way water will flow down grade through tunnels and rise in geothermal loops to fill mountain top pumped hydro batteries several times before eventually recharging several major aquifers. What I am proposing is essentially reversing the flow of the Colorado River Compact. Bringing water from the coast of California first to mountaintop reservoirs then to the deserts of Nevada and Arizona and on to Utah, New Mexico, Colorado and Wyoming. This big idea looks past any individual city or states problems and looks at the whole and by using first principles identifies the actual problem and only solution. Thank you for your time, I would like the opportunity to explain in further detail and answer any questions
In our country we are required to remove NH3 to 0.5mg/L in your presentation you just mentioned NH4 and NO2 and NO3. We are doing experiment using EC system but total NH3 increase after passing WW thru EC system. In Biological process can reduce NH3 be to 0.5 ml/L and NO3 to 1 mg/L level . if possible . What is the process ? The problem is a lot existing plant don't have space for additional tanks for Biological process.
Why Canna indica plant are dying at planted drying beds? Why are Anaerobic Filter Reactor not performing well in terms of TSS, COD and Pathogens reductions? Why ammonia is increasing at PDBs and Anaerobic Filter Reactor? Why does E.coli fully die off at Vertical Flow Constructed Wetland? Why is phosphate increasing at Horizontal flow constructed wetland? Why is Nitrate not decreasing at Horizontal flow wetland? Why is E.coli regrowth at Horizontal flow wetland?
Dear Blacoh Team, Hope you guys are doing good. I have an interview on Monday for the position of environmental officer for WWTP in a meat processing company. I just want you to help me in this regard and tell me what I should be preparing and which parameters I must consider. Any technical thing you can tell me would be of great help. I'm already watching your videos and helped me a lot. Thank you so much
I am going to pass my certification exams with your help. Thank you so much for these
Did you?
@Tom.D1234 indeed I did. I am actually beginning to prepare for my next one!
I keep watching it from time to time
This video is Educational and helpful for my new wastewater career thanks 100 times
Excellent video! He really explains the basics of wastewater without getting to in depth about the biology and chemistry of wastewater nutrient removal.
This is the best lecture video i saw.

You right, i can understand him as well
Wow! I already feel like having some expertise in ASP, thanks to the lecture of Mr Russ Wright!
Excellent video I learnt more about waste water treatment process.I really apriciate you thank you.
very good explanation in regarding with treatment plant, clear speaking
Nice information for me
Thanks for your efforts
I really apreciate these efforts to expose basics of sewage treatment.
Thank's a loooot professor
A must watch for OIT's and Chief Operators alike!

the man one who know basic concept clearly better than all beasts.
Thanx a lot! Really good video, which actually will help my in my job!
Great video. I’m from Utah too and I’m working as a plant operator to pay my way through school at uvu
Perfect! Fantastic job explaining this subject!
Informative ❤
thank you sir. its very helpful for me and others

Love y'alls videos, especially the Got Pumps Saga.
Small nitpick, you said ammonia when you meant ammonium at 13ish minutes.
Great video.
Thanks alot sir
you are the best..thanks..can we obtain the presentation??
you are amazing, you simplify it in perfect way,,, thank you
Great video!
please make complete videos .u teaching well sir
That nitrification tower looked like the plant I work at in Reno,NV.
Thank you from Algeria

Watch the video, Nitrogen Removal Basics by Steven Myers. Very good.
Excellent!!
In your previous waste water treatment video , you spoke of conventional STP process. Where can you insert the nitrogen and phosphorus removal?

Awesome explanation
How can I access the presentation? Perfect material clearly explained.
what about teaching us how to design a clarifier or aeration tank!
This is just grate
What if the plant uses a Dissolved Air Flotation system for secondary clarification? it's still possible the return of the activated sludge to the first anoxic chamber?
This is a great series!
That is so crazy because at my old job we had high no2 and high nh3 that means that we were not completely nitrifying
Sir please make a video about How to develop MLSS or activated sludge
Excellent presentation
