Description
The course gives operators, engineers and management an overview of the science of water/wastewater treatment polymer chemistry and links that fundamental perspective to principles that users and designers can use to optimize the preparation and application of these polymers. Variation in common equipment form factors to account and adjust for both liquid and dry polymer forms are also reviewed with case studies.
