Issues to be covered include:

Day 1: An overview of Wastewater Treatment and Wastewater Treatment Plant Design

• Introduction to Wastewater Engineering: Wastewater treatment, sludge treatment, water disposal and reuse
• Wastewater Characteristics & Treatment Considerations: Wastewater composition, flows and suitable treatment methods including compliance issues, COD, BOD, Ammonia removal.
• Wastewater Treatment Plant Design: Design calculations, ratios, physical processes, chemical processes, biological processes

Day 2: Conventional Treatment Plant Design

• Pre-Treatment, Primary, secondary and tertiary treatment plant design: features, nutrient removal techniques and considerations for water reuse
• Sludge Treatment Plant Design –  thickening, centrifuges, belt presses
• Membrane Technologies- UF, RO, MBR
• Boiler and Cooling Water Treatment

Day 3: Troubleshooting / Newer Physical and Biological Treatment Technologies

• Industrial Effluent Treatment: Specific design features, problems and trouble-shooting in industrial effluent treatment including Free Oil Separation, Flotation, Equalization/Diversion
• Troubleshooting:
-Basic troubleshooting biological effluent treatment – which parameters to monitor, how to calculate and interpret KPIs such as MCRT, F:M, SSVI etc.
-Troubleshooting membrane processes– which parameters to monitor, how to calculate and interpret KPIs such as CRI, PRI etc.
• Latest technologies: including Ultrasonic sludge conditioning, Bio-augmentation, MBR, MMBR, AMBR, pure or enhanced oxygen processes, biological aerated flooded filters, sequencing batch reactors, upflow anaerobic sludge blanket process, two and three stage digestion
• Problem-Solving Session: including case studies from the trainer’s professional practice (examples may include “Oily Wastewater Treatment: Troubleshooting Case Study” and “Biological Papermill Effluent Treatment Case Study”. Delegates may also wish to discuss

Testimonials

We’ve helped thousands of professionals grow their skills and confidence. Hear directly from the people who’ve taken our training courses.

The course was exceptional, well run in terms of delivery of information, IT online course but seamless. Very interesting examples of temporary works failures applicable to the businesses we worked in. Break out activities / group examples worked very well and were again well managed by the trainer. Fantastic course, I will recommend to others! Best course I have attended in years!

Black & Veatch

The trainers knowledge was excellent and I liked his examples and how he could relate them to every day relatable examples that we could all understand. Coming from different industries and sectors his examples were a common ground. It was handled very well virtually and the engagement worked with his questioning and answering
