1. A method for diagnosing and modeling site specific effluent treatment facility requirements at a mobile facility positioned at the treatment site and having a plurality of available down-scaled treatment technologies and a plurality of evaluation instrumentation therein to arrive at least at one proposed full-scale plant model optimized for the particular effluent and treatment site requirements and for full-scale plant treatment goals comprising the steps of:

  • analyzing raw effluent to be treated at the site to provide a field of raw effluent condition entry values;

    determining treatment goals for said raw effluent to provide a field of treated effluent condition entry values;

    both of said fields including substantially the same entries;

    utilizing said fields to determine an initial treatment model including a selection of, and use parameters for, treatment technologies from the plurality of available down-scaled treatment technologies at the facility;

    utilizing said fields to initially reject use of a selection of other treatment technologies from the plurality of available down-scaled treatment technologies at the facility; and

    treating raw effluent in accord with said model and evaluating model efficacy at the facility.
