SUMMARY:Galvanic Corrosion in the Water/Wastewater Infrastructure
DESCRIPTION:Stainless steel is selected for use in the municipal waterworks industry because of its inherent corrosion resistance properties. Designers oftentimes overlook the associated problems with coupling stainless steel with carbon steel metals. When these materials are electrically connected and placed into aqueous environments (immersion service)\, accelerated corrosion of the anodic carbon steel metal is initiated. \nThis webinar will review galvanic (bi-metallic) corrosion theory and\, in turn\, provide examples where bare stainless steel and coated carbon steel metals were coupled in water and wastewater structures. Recommendations will then be laid out on how to minimize the effects of galvanic coupling stainless steel with carbon steel metals.

SUMMARY:Wastewater Treatment Primary Sedimentation and Solids Removal
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a comprehensive overview of primary treatment\, the essential solids separation stage in wastewater treatment. This one-hour webinar is designed for wastewater operators\, utility board members\, and municipal decision-makers seeking to understand how primary sedimentation reduces organic loading and protects downstream biological processes. \nWe’ll cover the fundamental principles of gravity settling\, typical primary clarifier configurations and equipment\, key operational parameters and performance monitoring\, and routine maintenance practices. You’ll learn how effective primary treatment improves overall plant efficiency and contributes to regulatory compliance. Whether you’re new to wastewater operations\, managing day-to-day operations or overseeing infrastructure investments\, you’ll gain practical insights into this crucial treatment stage. \nPresenter: James Markham\, Research Engineer at the Southwest Environmental Finance Center
