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

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.
