In wastewater facilities, odors are generally a result of insufficient DO (Dissolved Oxygen) and/or excessive organic loading coupled with warm water temperature. With low DO, treatment is most likely suffering, and a gas byproduct of anaerobic digestion (most notably H2S, the cause of odors) will be released. If picked up by wind, these odors will...

Recently, wastewater lagoons are experiencing lowered phosphorus discharge limits. Apart from nitrogen, phosphorus also can cause eutrophication. Phosphorus input is more critical than nitrogen since phosphorus is a growth-limiting nutrient for the growth of organisms and can limit the primary use of a body of water. Although a small portion of phosphorus is removed naturally...
