One of the least understood unit process control tests is jar-testing.  Many water treatment plant staffs simply don’t do them because they have no confidence in the results they see. Operators have difficulty understanding the relationship of scale that jar-testing employs, and so the units tend to collect dust on the lab shelf, when they could easily be providing good information by which operators can make decisions.

EE&T has pioneered the jar-testing procedures, and our operational staff has developed a successful means of training operators to use it because we instill confidence in your Utility’s staff. Clear step by step procedures, tailored to your plant’s real-time configuration, are provided to the operators. All of the essential stock chemical preparation techniques and the scale-up calculations are taught to your staff by the operator who has re-written and helped produce the new AWWA jar-testing video. Why not put that expertise in your lab so that your staff can begin to use this excellent and time-honored unit-process procedure?
