This course covers support systems typical in treatment facilities such as high pressure air systems, blowers, compressors, vacuum pumps, pneumatic valve operator systems and process air systems. It is also designed to teach students about chemicals used in water treatment, along with associated hazards. Additional topics such as sludge and residual handling, building mechanical systems, maintenance and associated responsibilities are discussed. Prerequisites: There are no prerequisites for the course, but Industry experience or acceptance into the Water Treatment Technology program, WTTP 1731, WTTP 1291, WTTP 1301 are recommended.
