This presentation will focus on current methods of assessing converting a conventional activated sludge SBR system to granular activated sludge, as well as how to apply the evaluation methods to a non-SBR system. A case study will be presented examining the City of Pacifica's existing conventional SBR system.
Learning Objectives:
Perform basic design calculations for converting an existing conventional activated sludge system to granular activated sludge.
Understand the basics of granular activated sludge.
Understand how to calculate the financial savings associated with converting a conventional activated sludge system to granular activated sludge.
