This course is designed to train operators in the practical aspects of operating and maintaining industrial wastewater treatment facilities emphasizing safe practices and procedures. Information is presented on physical–chemical treatment methods; conditioning; gravity filtration; dissolved air flotation thickening; inert-media pressure filters; continuous backwash, upflow, deep-bed silica sand media filters; membrane filtration; biological aerated filters; air stripping; activated carbon adsorption; and metal wastestream treatment strategies and processes for removing common and complexed metals and recovering precious metals as well as applying flocculation, electrocoagulation, and other pollutant removal techniques.

Basic thru Advanced

Chapter 5, Physical and Physical–Chemical Treatment Processes Learning Objectives 1.Describe the components, process, principles behind, and use of physical–chemical treatment. 2.Describe the components, processes, and principles behind a range of filtration systems forwastewater treatment. 3.Describe the components, processes, principles behind, and uses of air stripping VOCs. 4.Describe the components, processes, principles behind, and uses of activated carbon adsorption. 5.Calculate dosing measures and performance metrics important to industrial wastewater treatment. Chapter 6, Treatment of Metal Wastestreams Learning Objectives 1.Identify the sources of metal wastestreams. 2.Describe treatment methods used to treat metal wastes, including neutralization, metalprecipitation, complexed metals removal, hexavalent chromium reduction, and destruction ofcyanide by oxidation. 3.Collect, treat, and dispose of sludge generated by these treatment processes. 4.Perform startup, shutdown, oper

The target audience for this course is the person interested in working in the wastewater treatment field and wishing to prepare for certification license exams, to learn how to do the job safely and effectively, and/or to meet educational needs for promotion.
