Description
The course's purpose is to emphasize the importance of identifying and eliminating infiltration inflow in sanitary sewer collection systems. The course will begin by outlining the benefits of identifying and eliminating I/I and show the participants that it is cost effective and a good investment toward the long term viability of their wastewater treatment system. In chapter 2, the course will cover doing a preliminary sewer system evaluation to determine the extent of the I/I problem. Chapter 3 will cover the steps in performing an effective SSES Sewer System Evaluation Study using smoke testings, flow monitoring equipment, manhole inspections, etc. to quantify the amount of I/I and to develop a detailed cost-effective analysis for I/I. Finally, Chapter 4 will cover sewer system rehabilitation techniques such as pipe bursting, manhole sealing, and slip lining. The course will conclude with a brief 15 question quiz. Instructional videos and demos will be used throughout the course in order to reinforce what is covered in the student workbook.
