Authors: Lytle, T., Karam, W., Esquer, M.E., Hetherington, M.

WE&T Journal, January 2019

Grit problems vary with each water resource recovery facility (WRRF), so the solutions need to be customized to meet WRRF expectations. Achieving these custom solutions requires a quantitative working definition for grit and identifying a methodical approach for designing and addressing a WRRF’s specific concern. This article presents case studies that illustrate this methodical process.
