Session Description

Lagoon facilities in Colorado are facing more stringent effluent requirements for BOD, TSS, and nutrient removal. This presentation will demonstrate an updated approach for lagoon-based wastewater treatment and will provide a comparison of past lagoon design standards to current ones and introduce advanced lagoon technologies that can be implemented for nutrient removal strategies. In-depth case studies will be included to showcase how lagoons in cold climates are being successfully updated to effectively meet current and future effluent requirements. Attendees will: 

• Learn how lagoon technology has evolved to meet changing effluent standards for BOD, TSS and Nutrient removal. 

• Gain insight into the value of process modelling for designing efficient and effective lagoon- based treatment systems for Canada’s effluent requirements. 

• Understand how traditional lagoon systems were designed and their typical treatment performance.
