Wastewater Engineering
With an operations focus, we help maximize your wastewater infrastructure while minimizing cost and regulatory risk.
We help you discover and build a solution that fits – whether you need to design and build a new wastewater facility from the ground up, increase capacity of an existing facility, or want to boost the efficiency and sustainability of your current infrastructure. Our wastewater experts blend leading-edge technology with trusted solutions to maximize treatment performance and capacity.
We also have professionals who determine industrial cost sharing and help with pretreatment needs. We assist in investigations to find sources of leading contaminants of concern, such as chlorides or PFAS.

Operations Consulting
SEH is committed to creating wastewater treatment facility designs with the system operators in mind. In the preliminary design stage, our operations experts will meet with plant operations staff to discuss how the desired improvements are proposed to fit with, and provide benefit to, your facility’s unit processes and operations.
During construction, we will review the work in progress with your operations staff to discuss the system’s operation – from the inside out. When it comes time for system startup, our expert staff will be there to instruct your operations staff on the proper use and maintenance of the systems and equipment. Operations consulting services include:
- Plant startup assistance
- Laboratory programs and certification assistance
- Sludge management programs
- Operations and maintenance manuals
- Operator training
- Computerized reporting
- Standard Operating Procedures
- Funding Assistance
Process Types
Beyond operator consulting, we also address operations throughout the entire processing cycle. With 80+ years of experience with wastewater system processes, including hundreds of projects, our wastewater management approach improves operational efficiencies across the entire wastewater processing cycle. Our knowledge of process types includes:
- Industrial pre-treatment
- Preliminary and primary treatment
- Trickling filters
- Activated sludge
- Phosphorus removal
- Ammonia removal
- Membrane bioreactor
- Stabilization ponds
- Disinfection
- Effluent filtration
- Effluent reuse
- Advanced tertiary treatment
- Solids handling/storage/reuse/disposal
- Digestion
- Reed beds
- Incineration
