Full-scale studies at a 16,000 p.e. wastewater treatment plant were carried out to examine the use of oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) (and dissolved oxygen (DO) concentrations for real-time monitoring of biological nutrient control. Breakpoints in DO and ORP time profiles proved particularly useful (with correct aeration conditions) in optimising nitrogen removal.
