Wastewater Microbiology

This video describes the importance of using wastewater microbes as indicator organisms to help optimize your wastewater treatment system.

[@StevenMyers0071]

The "indicator" organisms can function like the canary in the mine. Their relative populations can impacted before effluent performance changes are noticeable. This way you can conceivably prevent an upset instead of reacting to one.

very clear, even after 12 years.

excellent effort. Thank you !!

[@SKRajah]

very useful this video for laboratory Chemist/Micro biologist

[@typhoonRyder]

Great video, especially enjoyed the background music, made learning relaxed and comfortable. Thank you very much!

[@StevenMyers0071]

Here are four references, The first two are the ones used, especially the Curds and Cockburn.

Thank you very much. This video very useful for my job.

[@suekianahsuliman5980]

Thank you so much for your videos

I think I saw this same video in the ww treatment class I took. Very important. I really want to learn the biology side of treatment

[@khaleejkha4026]

Nice information and nice music... if the bacteria could hear it they will grow faster.

[@thanh8189]

Very useful. Thanks

Great video, do you have the links to the articles referenced? Thanks!

RAS flow is the amount of sludge that is returned to the aeration basin after being removed from the secondary clarifier.

[@nickmayhew9722]

Mixed liquor concentration is the amount of solids in a Mixed liquor sample. The last two can easily be defined by performing a Google search on these terms.

very good video. What type is your microscope? at how much magnitude? Thanks

[@rewaste100]

Thank you for your movies.

[@aravind1077]

why there will be lot of foams generates in pre aeration tank? ("tank receives water from anaerobic treatment process" )

[@thepiperreport8198]

Wasn't the nematode the monster that Roger Klatz tried getting Doug Funny to find?

[@riovation]

RioVation has developed a cost effective Biofilm Reactor called BioMaze that can be in stalled into almost any state approved onsite wastewater treatment septic tank. We are seeing single digit CBOD5 and TSS results along with nitrification. We are doing our R&D for denitrification within two compartment septic tanks currently. I am interested if you could direct me to where the report Mr. Leland Myers mentions from England at
