Emerging Technologies for Biosolids Management

Course No. C-6006

Credit: 6 PDH

Course Fee: $164.95 Purchase course

Subject Matter Expert: Raymond Ehrhard, P.E.

Overview

Biosolids (sewage sludge) are the nutrient-rich organic materials resulting from treatment and processing of wastewater residuals. U.S. Environmental Protection Agency estimates that publicly owned wastewater treatment works (POTW) generate over 8 million tons (dry weight) of sewage sludge annually. New sewage sludge regulations reduces options for disposal and rising energy costs are causing a new wave of technologies to be introduced into this market. New equipment is being developed and tested at a record pace. Wastewater treatment plants and engineers are involved with evaluating the latest and best technologies for this changing industry.

The study material provides information on new technologies entering the market. This EPA sponsored report looks at technologies for conditioning, thickening, stabilizing, dewatering thermal conversion and drying of biosolids. It presents the state of development, available cost information, associated contact names, and related data sources for each technology.

This course provides the student an opportunity to look at and evaluate the latest biosolids technologies entering the market. The course is suitable for a student with basic wastewater treatment knowledge or for an advanced student that needs to evaluate new and emerging alternative biosolids management technologies.

The student is expected to read and review the material contained in the EPA Document, EPA 832-R-06-005, Emerging Technologies for Biosolids Management.

The student must take a multiple-choice quiz consisting of thirty (30) questions at the end of this course to obtain 6 PDH credits.
