Standards for Operation of Nutrient Removal Facilities, WEF 37-24

Standards for Operation of Nutrient Removal Facilities, WEF 37-24, covers the fundamental biological and chemical processes that are in use at nutrient removal facilities and the ways that operators may use, monitor, and control these processes to meet their facility’s treatment goals. It is a valuable resource not only for plant managers and operators, but also design engineers and regulators. This latest edition references the most up-to-date technologies and practices for nutrient removal and includes both new and updated case studies.
