Upon completion of the course participants will have gained a solid understanding of the key elements associated with the design, operation and troubleshooting of wastewater treatment unit operations. Especially understanding the fundamentals of biological treatment will be a focus. Furthermore, they will have an overview of the changes in the legislative framework as well as in the characteristics of refinery effluent with changing feedstock. Suitable for: This programme was developed for a broad range of professionals in need of understanding the fundamentals of wastewater treatment as well as practical guidelines on how to manage a treatment plant. It is ideal for refinery and petrochemical process and design engineers, unit operators and supervisors as well as operations engineers and maintenance personnel. Additionally, it is well suited for personnel from consulting companies, engineering firms and suppliers of services to the refining industry.

Course programme
Introduction:
This course provides an in-depth overview of wastewater treatment from the sources of wastewater and their associated chemistries to the legislation governing the discharge.
The core of the training comprises the design and operational aspects of the unit operations found in wastewater treatment:
• Primary treatment for free oil, emulsified oil and suspended solids removal
• Biological secondary treatment for removal of dissolved organics and ammonium
• Tertiary treatment, effluent polishing, recycling and odour control
• Sludge dewatering and disposal
The focus is on understanding and troubleshooting the various process steps. Throughout this training, participants are encouraged to share their specific challenges, which will then be discussed to serve as case histories and examples to benefit all the class.state of the art technical and economic concepts that will allow participants to identify areas improvements and implement energy-saving projects. All main aspects of energy analysis are covered in a combination of oral presentations, class discussions and computer demonstration work.
The methodology combines the technical and economic facets of energy isues, focusing on profitbility in addition to technical aspects such as mass and energy balance, and thermodynamics. Programme notes will be supplied.
