Join YSI experts for a deep dive into phosphorus removal strategies in municipal wastewater applications. In this 50-minute educational webinar, followed by a 10-minute Q&A session, you’ll learn how to tackle phosphorus—a key nutrient of concern for wastewater operators. Attendees will earn 0.1 CEUs from the International Association for Continuing Education and Training (IACET), with many credits transferable, so check with your local association.

Phosphorus, mainly in the form of phosphate, can lead to eutrophication in lakes and rivers, prompting strict NPDES effluent limits on Water Resource Recovery Facilities (WRRFs). Operators need to understand how phosphorus behaves in different forms throughout the treatment process to effectively monitor and remove it. This webinar will cover key phosphorus removal strategies—chemical removal, enhanced biological phosphorus removal (EBPR), and tertiary filtration—each with its own pros and cons. You’ll also learn how online orthophosphate analyzers can help optimize the removal process, backed by real-world case studies from successful WRRF implementations.

By the end of the webinar, attendees will be able to:

  • Explain phosphorus behavior in wastewater and why it’s essential to remove it.
  • Compare phosphorus removal strategies and evaluate their advantages and disadvantages.
  • Apply online orthophosphate monitoring to optimize phosphorus removal.

This webinar is a must for wastewater operators, engineers, and technicians looking to improve phosphorus management and ensure compliance with regulatory standards.
