Matthew Frigon

Laboratory Manager at EnviTreat

Springdale, Arkansas, United States

About

Dr. Frigon. has 20 years of environmental water and wastewater experience, specializing in biological treatment. He is currently the Laboratory Manager at EnviTreat in addition to his engineering responsibilities. EnviTreat is a lab that focuses on analysis of biological systems for degradation of wastewater. Tests include aerobic/anaerobic degradability, toxicity, biochemical methane potential (BMP), chemical loading assays, and bench scale system operation to determine feasibility and develop data for full scale system design. Dr. Frigon has worked on the design of a number of water, municipal wastewater, and industrial wastewater facilities. Dr. Frigon is also experienced in hydrologic analysis of stormwater and design of low impact development (LID) facilities and passive stormwater treatment systems for both control of runoff volumes/rates to meet water quality objectives.
