YSI Webinar | Activated Sludge | 3 Things to Improve Process Efficiency

Tue, 19 Jul 2022 12:19:29 GMT

Join YSI’s wastewater expert, Dr. Rob Smith, as he discusses activated sludge at municipal wastewater treatment facilities. Dr. Rob reviews the three things you should know about activated sludge in water resource recovery facilities.

Optimization of the activated sludge process requires careful management of three critical parameters: aeration, sludge wasting, and sludge recirculation. Over the years, wastewater professionals have based their decisions on measurements from batch tests applied to grab samples. The batch measurements are representative of the process but are limited in frequency and subject to interpretation.

On the other hand, direct measurement of water chemistry is performed in the laboratory for demonstrating permit compliance on composited influent and effluent samples. The laboratory measurements provide measurements of important variables like oxygen, solids, ammonium and nitrate, but they are also limited in frequency and the samples are not representative of the process.

Online process monitoring provides the best of both strategies by directly measuring the important variables in representative samples continuously. This webinar discusses online process monitoring and control of activated sludge. Topics include:

Measurement principle
Operation and maintenance
Applications for energy conservation and nutrient removal

YSI Webinar | Drowning in Data, Monitoring Harmful Algal Blooms

Tue, 10 Oct 2017 19:00:00 GMT

Watch Part I, From Data to Decisions: http://video.ysi.com/ysi-webinar-monitoring-for-harmful-algal-blooms

Are you drowning in data? Join Dr. Stephanie A. Smith of YSI, a Xylem Brand, and Chuck Springer of Aquatic Informatics as they review best practices for managing and interpreting algae data in this recorded webinar!

Interpreting algae monitoring data is not straightforward, even with the most sophisticated instruments at our fingertips. Examples of challenges include:

Processing and interpreting large datasets
Working with mismatched timestamps and data from multiple sources
Collating data which exist in different file formats
Correcting water quality signals to compensate for sensor drift and step changes

Webinar Highlights

Demonstration of how spreadsheet tools can be used to process data
Discussion about the limitations of sensor technologies for describing algal biology in units such as CFU/ml and a discussion on how software can be leveraged to estimate some of these values
Description of solutions for managing data from discrete environmental samples, multi-parameter sondes, and laboratory analyses
Best practices on identifying data outliers, reviewing associated metadata, and applying drift corrections across disparate files generated by monitoring tools
Many of these same techniques can be used across a variety of parameters and monitoring applications!

YSI Webinar | Case Study: Enhanced Performance & Reduced Operating Costs

Mon, 24 Oct 2016 19:00:00 GMT

Meeting wastewater treatment objectives and staying within budget requires careful control of the process. At a conventional activated sludge (CAS) facility in Wisconsin, a full scale WWTP demonstration of Sanitaire's OSCAR™ process performance optimizer and YSI's IQ SensorNet (https://www.ysi.com/iqsn2020) process monitoring system demonstrated a substantial savings in operating costs while maintaining treatment performance.

Join YSI and Sanitaire application experts for a 1 hour live webinar presentation on September 17th at 1:30 EDT to learn more about this project. The webinar will provide details about the system design and operation, as well as the implementation of the monitoring and control system including setpoints, sensor location, and other critical control parameters.

Find out how a 10% savings in energy cost and a projected annual savings of almost $75,000 were achieved with dissolved oxygen (DO) monitoring and aeration control and orthophosphate monitoring and chemical dosing control.

In addition, monitoring total suspended solids (TSS) with solids inventory management system (SIMS) control stabilized the operation and relieved operators of the worry of adjusting daily sludge wasting rates to provide sufficient MLSS and solids retention time (SRT) to meet treatment requirements.

Speakers:
Dr. Rob Smith is Applications Engineer – Wastewater at YSI. He has nearly 20 years of experience as a wastewater treatment specialist. His job responsibility at YSI is to advise wastewater professionals on how to obtain high quality, useful data from their YSI instruments.

Dr. Bulbul Ahmed is a Process Engineer at Sanitaire Products. He holds a Ph.D. from Washington State University in Chemical Engineering and is a licensed professional engineer in the State of Michigan. He is responsible for managing full scale pilot testing projects along with providing process expertise for wastewater professionals interested in Sanitaire’s biological process solutions.

YSI IQ SensorNet Water Quality System Solves WRRF Issues

Tue, 20 Jan 2015 19:00:00 GMT

The YSI IQ SensorNet (http://www.ysi.com/iq) modular, continuous water quality monitoring and control system is capable of assisting many Wastewater Operators with their daily challenges. Water Resource Recovery Facilities all face new realities in their daily operations and the IQ system functions as an automated system to help eliminate costs, wasted energy, and extra time.

Follow a real operator in his scenario of how the IQ SensorNet water quality system helps with his four main issues:

1) “We already spend a fortune on energy and costs just keep rising. How can I reduce energy costs for aeration and pumping without lowering my treatment performance?

2) “Our new permit includes a compliance schedule for phosphorus. It’s another thing we have to do but we are also under pressure to keep costs down. How do I make sure that we meet the new requirements without a huge increase in the operating budget?

3) “Trying to do more with less has been a challenge. Is there low-maintenance online monitoring to cut down on the multiple grab samples we do per day freeing up staff for other important tasks? ”

4) “Planning for future needs is always tough. I need equipment that meets my needs today that my team can maintain and expand when necessary without having to buy a service contract or call in dedicated or specialized experts.”

IQ SensorNet Wastewater Monitoring & Control | City of Dayton, OH | YSI

Thu, 04 Sep 2014 19:00:00 GMT

The City of Dayton, OH utilizes the YSI IQ SensorNet (http://www.ysi.com/iq) to lower preventative maintenance, optimize process, meet permits, and save money in the long run.

Jason Tincu explains their use of DO sensors to fine tune aeration needs while using the ammonium sensors to trim back aeration even further while still completely nitrifying in the system.

The YSI IQ also eliminates the need to have outside professionals onsite and prevents the City from having costly service contracts.

As the City looks into the future, they anticipate tighter restrictions on their permit in regards to phosphorus and they intend to seamlessly add the YSI Orthophosphate analyzer to their existing IQ SensorNet system

The YSI IQ SensorNet 2020 XT is a modular water quality system for a complete sensor network ideal for various installation needs. The modular system can accept additional sensors easily at any time. This is a powerful system to continuously measure water quality parameters anywhere in a facility for process control.

Immediate benefits include better network visibility and management, early detection of network failures, improved compliance with regulatory targets and cost savings (energy, pump/blower maintenance, labor).

The system is capable of measuring:
Dissolved oxygen (optical or electrochemical)
pH
ORP
Conductivity
Temperature
Turbidity - ultrasonic cleaning
TSS (total suspended solids) - ultrasonic cleaning
Ammonium
Nitrate*
Potassium
COD (chemical oxygen demand) - ultrasonic cleaning
TOC (total organic carbon) - ultrasonic cleaning
DOC (dissolved organic carbon share of TOC) - ultrasonic cleaning
SAC (spectral absorption coefficient) - ultrasonic cleaning
BOD (biochemical oxygen demand) - ultrasonic cleaning

*Chloride can be seen in the menu on the terminal but only the last value. No real-time monitoring and control function when used on the NitraLyt or VARiON sensor as compensation for nitrate.

The entire system accommodates up to 20 sensors for the above listed parameters in any combination. Any sensor can also be changed out at any time without re-wiring if another parameter is needed. Simply change sensors (parameters) and start getting data for the new parameter.
