Methodology
The screening converts design flow and nutrient targets into supplemental carbon demand, metal-salt phosphorus dosing, reagent feed rates, sludge yield, alkalinity response, and operating-cost indicators.
Preliminary stoichiometric screening for denitrification carbon, DO-scavenging demand, alum, ferric, ferrous, and PAC dosing, buffer demand, sludge production, clarifier loading, storage, and cost comparisons.
