Description
The purpose of this class is to explain the proper uses and methods to add chemicals for water and wastewater treatment. Since the uses of chemicals in water & wastewater treatment have greatly expanded from years ago, operators need to understand all options. Currently, chemicals are used in just about all phases of water and wastewater treatment. Today’s treatment facilities are being designed and operated using chemicals for: coagulation, pH adjustment, taste and odor control, algae control, removal of trace elements and heavy metals, corrosion control, fluoridation, disinfection, and the conditioning and treatment of waste residuals. A good understanding of these chemicals is needed.
