Title:
W13 Understanding and Applying Disinfection Fundamentals (Off-site)
Description:
Come learn the why and how of wastewater disinfection from a group of experts in the field. There is a suite of disinfection technologies available for use, and it can be challenging to understand how they work and to select the most appropriate technology. This workshop aims to provide a fundamental understanding of the current and emerging disinfection technologies with hands on learning activities and a look ahead to potential changes in the regulatory environment.

Learning Objectives
At the conclusion of this workshop, participants will be able to:
• List the reasons for wastewater disinfection.
• Identify microbial concerns and common pathogens present in wastewater.
• List the major disinfection technologies and summarize the associated disinfection mechanisms.
• Perform common measurements associated with disinfection operations.
• Analyze dose response data to determine the required disinfection dose.
• Recommend a disinfection technology for a sample utility given design criteria and other constraints.
