description The hydraulic calibration of treatment units in wastewater treatment plants is a crucial task. It involves demonstrating the relative placement of these various units in relation to the water line that traverses the plant, and helps indicate the ground surface for establishing the optimal elevations of the plant's structures and hydraulic controls. This process is meticulous, complex, and prone to errors. Special attention must be given to the issue of varying hydraulic loads that the plant will receive, particularly at the inlet. Such variations can disrupt hydraulic operation and negatively impact the plant's performance. For these reasons, the hydraulic calibration of treatment units must always be verified and analyzed for most of the common hydraulic constraints encountered in practice. This article focuses on the different types of flow and their regimes commonly found in wastewater treatment plants, and aims to guide users on how to optimize the hydraulic profile. It highlights the impact of head losses and integrates a range of potential alternatives for achieving hydraulic efficiency in a wastewater treatment plant.
