Description

A comprehensive and multidisciplinary program that will allow you to excel in your career, following the latest advances in Wastewater Treatment"

##IMAGE##

The purpose of a Wastewater Treatment plant (WWTP) is to remove pollutants from wastewater in order to return the water to its source without the presence of pollutants. Among the most frequent contaminants are oils, greases, sands, settleable solids, ammonia and phosphorus compounds. 

After passing through the WWTP and as in any chemical process, a product is obtained which is the decontaminated water and a by-product which is the stable sludge as a result of the operations carried out.

The course is focused on the study of the processes and equipment associated with a Wastewater Treatment plant from a chemical engineering point of view. First, a description of the chemical contaminants is given and the methodology for sample collection is discussed. Secondly, the processes carried out in a WWTP are studied in depth, differentiating between pretreatment, primary, secondary and tertiary treatment. Thirdly, the sludge obtained in a WWTP, its treatment and its use in the form of biogas are studied. Finally, low-cost purification technologies, such as lagooning or green filtering, among others, will be studied. 

After completing this training, the student will be able to identify and understand the physicochemical processes of a Wastewater Treatment plant, as well as to design the equipment of a WWTP.

It should be noted that as this is a 100% online course, the student is not conditioned by fixed schedules or the need to move to another physical location, but can access the contents at any time of the day, balancing their work or personal life with their academic life.

Postgraduate Certificate in Wastewater Treatment

At the Faculty of Engineering of TECH Technological University, the largest Spanish-speaking university in the world, we offer engineers an attractive Postgraduate Certificate in Wastewater Treatment with the aim of studying the processes and equipment associated with a Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP), from the chemical point of view (removal of pollutants: oils, greases, sands, settleable solids, ammonia and phosphorus compounds). In addition, it goes into the purification stages (pre-treatment and primary, secondary and tertiary treatment) and the obtaining of sludge for use as biogas.

The best Postgraduate Certificate in wastewater treatment

Addressing the relationship between water and the environment is a responsibility, to a greater extent, of professional engineering graduates. Hence, a specialized education, such as this TECH Postgraduate Certificate, is a unique alternative to update the engineer's knowledge. In this sense, students who access our program will be able to identify and apply concepts related to physicochemical processes of water, pollution parameters, sedimentation, biofilters, nitrogen removal, pH regulation, sludge treatment, low cost purification technologies, septic tanks, among other topics.
