Course Description

Effective Particle / Turbidity Removal at Water and Wastewater Treatment Facilities | Learn about operational considerations associated with effective turbidity and particle removal in conventional water treatment plants and advanced wastewater treatment plants. Discuss physical and chemical methods of treatment, coagulation, flocculation, sedimentation/clarification and filtration, descriptions of the technology associated with each as well as routine monitoring, operation and troubleshooting. Practice exercises in solving typical operational problems associated with these treatment technologies and related process math. $214 includes $158 fee. CEUs issued. Note: Offered in partnership with the Maryland Center for Environmental Training (MCET).

Learner Outcomes

 Identify regulatory requirements and typical performance goals of water treatment and wastewater treatment in terms of particle / turbidity removal, including total organic carbon and phosphorus removal; Provide details on treatment methodologies involved with each process (e.g,  physical and chemical treatment); Describe the concept and design considerations involved with coagulation (alternative chemicals, chemical feed and rapid mixing), flocculation, sedimentation / clarification, and filtration (rapid sand, mixed media, traveling bridge, green-sand, and pressure and membrane filtration;  Characterize the normal operation, monitoring, typical upsets, and troubleshooting procedures for each process; Perform process calculations associated with each process.
