Event Description
RMWEA’s Innovative Water Technology Committee is collaborating with WEF's local I&C team to organize a "Workshop in a Box" as part of WEF’s initiative to bring national conference content to regional audiences in a more accessible format. This workshop is based on WEF’s Practical Applications of Instrumentation and Controls for Aeration and Nutrient Removal and will focus on approaches to aeration control, nutrient removal, instrumentation, and process optimization. It will bring together utility staff, regional partners, and subject matter experts for a hands-on learning opportunity and regional knowledge sharing. Schedule as follows:
