Abstract:
|
|
It is important for the operator of a facility to understand the physical and chemical characteristics of wastewater and how to properly sample and test it to provide the treatment necessary to discharge clean water to the environment. Chapter 17 gives and overview of the composition of wastewater; explains the different types of sampling needed, how to collect and preserve samples, what equipment is needed, and why the chain of custody is important; and briefly discusses airspace monitoring relative to worker safety and odor control. In particular, sampling and testing are important to provide data operators need to treat the waste stream properly to meet legal requirements. The revised version of this chapter provides more detail and adds tests that were not included in the previous edition of MOP 11. The added material will help the operator have a better understanding of wastewater and how to provide effective treatment. |
