Technical and educational resources from ONK Technology on wastewater settleability — how it is measured, why it matters, and how the Settle-O-matic™ platform turns it into continuous operating intelligence.
Watch real 40-minute settling time-lapses paired with their measured settling curves — then see the exact stage frames (SV0 → SV40) the Analyzer captures. Six representative cases from live field units.
A cross-process applications guide — how and where continuous settleability monitoring adds value across CAS, oxidation ditches, SBR, MBR, IFAS/MBBR, lagoons, and industrial treatment.
Download PDF →An accessible introduction to activated-sludge microbiology — the community that cleans wastewater, how sludge age governs its health, and how settling behavior reveals it.
Download PDF →A plain-language primer on conventional activated-sludge treatment — the process, regulatory limits, and how real-time settleability monitoring holds effluent quality while cutting cost.
Download PDF →A technical comparison of membrane-bioreactor and conventional activated-sludge approaches — performance, lifecycle economics, and what each means for how settleability is managed.
Download PDF →The product brief — the automated field Analyzer (hardware) and the cloud Advisor (software) that turns hourly settling data into actionable process intelligence.
Download PDF →Preview slides for our WEFTEC 2026 showcase — the platform, the settling anomalies it detects, and the operations intelligence it delivers.
View slides →Six real settling cases — time-lapse video, measured curve, and stage frames for each. Normal through denitrification, bulking, pin-floc, and operational faults.
