Description
Operators, engineers, designers and managers involved with wastewater treatment plants aim for a thorough understanding of biological treatment processes in order to achieve the expected performance. The course stresses the understanding the fundamentals and bridges the theoretical considerations with the practical aspects of operation.
Objective
To provide comprehensive understanding of biological nutrient removal processes and tools to achieve effective performance results including problem solving ideas.
Who Should Attend
Technical people involved in design, operation, monitoring and control of wastewater treatment plants and individuals who want to sharpen their skills.
Course Outcomes
Individuals will have a better understanding and knowledge about the variables that affect nutrient removal systems and approaches to optimize plant performance.
