Description
The primary purpose of this course, Overview of Advanced Wastewater Treatment Processes, is to provide participants with an introduction to the basic concepts of some common advanced wastewater treatment processes and systems. The purpose of advanced treatment, also known as tertiary treatment, is to further treat the effluent beyond the secondary processes.
