Claim 17:
18. The method for treating biosolids according to claim 1, wherein the measuring one or more of pH, alkalinity, magnesium concentration, ortho-phosphorus concentration, total phosphorus content, ammonia content, total nitrogen content, total solids content, total volatile solids, polymer consumption, and metal salt consumption associated with the treatment process for the wastewater solids includes measuring at multiple locations within one or more of a biological reactor vessel and a storage tank, and further comprising:
calculating the Struvite Precipitation Index value for at least a portion of the multiple locations within one or more of the biological reactor vessel and the storage tank;
wherein determining the magnesium compound dosage includes calculating the magnesium compound dosage to maintain an elevated Struvite Precipitation Index value for at least the portion of the multiple locations within one or more of the biological reactor vessel and the storage tank to cause struvite formation in one or more predetermined locations; and
adding the one or more magnesium compounds to the biological reactor vessel to cause the struvite formation in the one or more predetermined locations.
