Overview
This course focuses on the processes required for water and wastewater treatment. Quality criteria for different water uses (potable water, irrigation water, water reuse and more) will be discussed, as well as the characteristics of the different water sources - surface water, groundwater, wastewater. The chemical, physical and biological processes involved in water treatment will be described. There will be a focus on the operational units and processes, e.g. sand filtration, membrane filtration, disinfection, flocculation-coagulation, water softening etc. The course will begin by covering the fundamentals that are necessary to understand water qualities and criteria and what process units are required. We will continue with the description and understanding of each of the units – theory, practice and problem solving. We will end the course with an exercise, which will include a design scheme of various water treatment processes and solving problems that might occur during the process. A short exam will be given to the participants. The exam is not obligatory, but required for receiving the course certificate. Intended course outcome: 1. You will understand the water quality criteria for different water sources and usage purposes. 2. You will understand the fundamentals of the operational units that are part of the water treatment process 3. You will be able to propose a water treatment process for various water sources and usage purposes. 4. You will be able to avoid and solve common and less common problems. 5. You will gain expertise water treatment practices. 6. You will become familiar with new technologies.
