The ORC noted that in the past there have been issues with NH3 as N potentially due to influent with a low pH. He has been raising the pH with MgOH and this appears to be solving the problem. It may help to add an electronic mixer unit to the MgOH drip to prevent it from falling out of suspension prior to being added to the influent.
