11/12/2021 Distance is not a problem for pilot study anymore!

Just flew back from Seattle after touring our mainstream partial nitrification and partial denitrification anammox (PNA-PDNA) pilot system funded for providing “Nitrogen Reduction Technology Solutions for Ocean Discharges” by Water Research Foundation (WRF 5133). It is amazing to meet sponsors and collaborators ‘in person’. Honestly, this is my first time remote controlling a west coast pilot system from the east coast through online algorithm. Everything is automatic and smart. Appreciate talented graduate students, funding agency (WRF), industrial collaborators (Hazen), utility partners (Everett), and academic collaborators (UW & Utah) to make this happen!
