This weekend workshop will help you rethink wastewater. Using one of Yestermorrow's existing facilities as a case study, students will redesign its wastewater system from the groundwater up. In two days we will cover system analysis, site investigation, permitting, treatment options, design basics and material selection. The course will also cover design history and current design theory. We also hope to answer your questions regarding source separation, composting toilets, and nutrient cycling. After completing the course, students will be able to identify the major components of a wastewater treatment system and size individual treatment unit processes. All Levels. [Please note: This class begins Friday evening at 7pm.]
