This PE continuing education course introduces the principles of water chemistry, physical, chemical, biological, and radiological characteristics of water, reaction kinetics, coagulation/flocculation, softening, mixing and flocculation, sedimentation, filtration, disinfection, adsorption, and water plant waste management. In this PE PDH course we define several terms related to water supply systems, water supply systems classifications, chemical units, and discuss the water quality, water quality standards, working principles of coagulation/flocculation, softening, mixing and flocculation, sedimentation, filtration, disinfection, and adsorption. we solve some problems to understand the basic concept of water treatment and design some unit processes. This professional engineer continuing education course is suggested for civil engineers, environmental engineers, and water and wastewater treatment plant managers and operators.
Course Objectives
After successful completion of this PE PDH course, the professional engineer will be able to:
- explain the water chemistry.
- discuss the reaction kinetics, water quality, and water quality standards.
- describe the concepts of coagulation/ flocculation, water softening process, sedimentation, filtrations, and adsorption.
- design the unit processes for water treatment.
