This class is a two-day course by Dr. Michael Richard
on Activated Sludge Microbiology/Filament Identification.
This class is for RMWEA or WEF members only. You will be required to enter your membership number to register. If you are not a member you may become an RMWEA member for one year for a fee of $35. To do so click here. Once you receive your membership number return here to register. If you are registering a friend to share your microscope with that person will also need to be a member.
Dr. Richard’s book (Manual
on the Causes and Control of Activated Sludge Bulking, Foaming and Other Solids
Separation Problems, Jenkins, Richard & Daigger), is required for the course. You may bring your own manual or purchase one here while registering.
Bring a Friend - There are a limited number of microscopes available
(20), so there is a cap on attendees. However, if two people (ideally from the same
plant, but not necessary) want to share a microscope, this will allow for more people to attend. The option of adding a friend/co-worker is available through registration.
Attendees are encouraged to bring a sample of their activated sludge with them to the course.
