Aim: During the course the students learn how to do a draft design a water works for treatment of groundwater. In addition, the students do an experimental and theoretical analysis of the operation of a groundwater plant.
|
Contents: The course contains two major parts:
1. Design of a water works. First the treatment objectives are identified from the raw water analysis and current water quality standards, and the water demand and its variation is estimated. The design starts with an analysis of treatment alternatives, and after selection of treatment process, a draft design is carried out leading to drawings of the processes, a hydraulic profile, explanation of operation, and finally an estimate of capital and operating costs. The processes are aeration/stripping, adjustment of the carbonate buffer system by lime addition, etc., primary and secondary filtration, activated carbon treatment (solvents and a pesticide), UV-disinfection, and finally pumping of the water to consumers.
2. Analysis of water works operation. The operation of a near-by water works is analyzed based on the measurements of appr. 10 physical-chemical parameters. From this, the operat
