Water Treatment Plant Design (IX & RO)

This course provides a comprehensive understanding of Water Treatment Plant Design, Theory, and Practices, with a special focus on Ion Exchange and Reverse Osmosis (RO) technologies. Participants will learn the fundamental principles involved in water treatment and purification processes. The course covers water quality parameters, treatment objectives, process selection, and plant design considerations. It explains the working principles and applications of ion exchange systems for removing dissolved ions and impurities. Participants will also gain practical knowledge of membrane-based separation and reverse osmosis technology. The course addresses RO system components, membrane selection, pretreatment requirements, and operating parameters. It introduces methods for evaluating water chemistry, system performance, recovery, and treatment efficiency. Participants will understand common operational problems such as scaling, fouling, and membrane degradation. The course also covers equipment selection, process flow diagrams, plant layout, and basic design considerations. Practical approaches to operation, maintenance, troubleshooting, and optimization of water treatment systems are included.
