Wastewater Bacteria
Description
Wastewater Bacteria (WWT-28-CT):
In order to achieve the objectives of wastewater treatment, it is essential for plant operators to understand the biological processes and organisms involved in wastewater treatment to ensure that the presence of an adequate, active, and appropriate population of bacteria is present in each process. This course will provide operators with an understanding of the significant bacterial groups and the roles they perform in wastewater treatment, the operational conditions that affect bacterial activity.
What will be covered:
- Denitrifying bacteria
- Fermentative (acetate-forming and acid-forming) bacteria
- Filamentous bacteria and floc-foaming bacteria
- Hydrolytic bacteria and methane-forming bacteria
- Nitrifying bacteria and poly-p bacteria
- Sulphur-oxidizing bacteria and sulphur reducing bacteria
