Provides personnel a new understanding of how lagoon and fixed film
sewage treatment systems work

* Tested in short-course situations by the author over the last
20 years

* Directs the material in a practical manner at
operators who are responsible for process control and
troubleshooting

* Reduces the jargon, chemical equations, and kinetics that
overwhelm most operators and laboratory technicians

* Provides necessary information for understanding biological and
chemical conditions at the treatment process
