Effective treatment and disposal of aqueous effluents is vital for cost reduction. Companies need to explore the characterisation of effluents and learn how to select the most cost-effective process for a range of effluent discharges. This course explains the reasons and methods used for aqueous effluent treatment.

• Legal requirements 

• Characterization of effluent and treatment strategy 

• Waste minimization 

• Safety 

• Treatment processes 

• Biotechnology 

• Process control

• Economics

On completion of the course, participants will be able to do the following:

• Apply the principles and technology of aqueous effluent treatment.

• Select the most appropriate treatment strategy for a range of effluents.

• Select the most cost-effective strategy for effluent discharge.

• All engineers, scientists and biologists in the field of aqueous effluent treatment 

• All those involved in the management of aqueous effluents 

• All those responsible for managing existing treatment plants.
