Wastewater Management & Introduction to Effluent Treatment Plant
coming soon!
course info
Effluent Treatment Plants (ETP) are key elements of the textile industry supply chain and managing wastewater properly, a key environmental challenge. This online course covers both the different characteristics of wastewater and how to treat it, as well as explains how Effluent Treatment Plants operate. It was designed to ensure operators are qualified to run the site safely, efficiently and properly. This course is introductory to ETPs and will be completed with a more advanced course on this topic.
Coming soon Detailed outline
