Why take this course?

Welcome to Design of Wastewater Treatment Plants for Onsite Projects course!

In this course you will learn how to fully design an on-site wastewater treatment plant for small to medium scale projects. It covers conventional, modern, and nature-based solutions for efficient treatment using the following processes:

- Pre-treatment including Coarse Screening, Grease Trap, and Equalization Tank

- Primary Treatment including Septic Tank and Anaerobic Baffled Reactor (ABR)

- Secondary Treatment including Aerated Wastewater Treatment Plants (AWTS), Moving Bed Biofilm Reactor (MBBR), and Horizontal Constructed Wetlands (nature-based solution)

- Tertiary Treatment including Sand & Carbon Filtration, and Disinfection

- Effluent Reuse for Irrigation of crops, trees, and landscaping plants

You will learn how to design and size these processes along with their electro-mechanical components including blowers, coarse and fine bubble diffusers, treatment media quantity, etc...

You will be also able to understand the wastewater characteristics (BOD, TSS, COD, Nitrates, Coliform...), effluent quality norms and regulations for safe disposal or reuse, and the maintenance requirements of each process.

The course contains detailed explanations, step-by-step calculations, numerical examples, case studies, quizzes, practical tips,...

It is designed for beginners, professionals, engineers, and humanitarians interested in designing wastewater treatment plants for a residence, building complex, refugee settlements, or even a whole community.

The course will be constantly updated with new content, new processes, and modules determined and suggested by students.

I remain always available and reachable for any help, question or clarification during the learning process.

A lot of the content does not explain details of the concepts. The formulas are simply read, instead of explained and there has been no explanation on how certain values, such as BOD or Ammonia and Nitrogen levels are measured.

I recently completed this course, and I must say it exceeded all my expectations. The content was incredibly fruitful and straightforward, which made it easy to grasp even complex concepts. The course structure was well-organized, keeping it concise and to the point without sacrificing any essential information. The instructor's teaching style was excellent; they presented the material in a clear and engaging manner, keeping me focused and motivated throughout the entire course. Additionally, the comprehensive nature of the course ensured that I gained a thorough understanding of the subject matter. The practical examples were a real highlight. They helped me apply the knowledge effectively, and I could see immediate progress in my learning journey. I highly recommend this course to anyone seeking a fast and efficient way to gain expertise in [course topic]. It's a true gem among online courses! Thank you to the course creators for providing such a valuable learning experience.

It's been a very clear and well-structured course that's given me a much better understanding in my head of the whole wastewater process. The advantages and disadvantages of different processes are clearly explained. As a bonus there's practical rule-of-thumb calcs to set up such a plant, so at least I understand some of the parameters they engineers have to get right. Many thanks!

The consistent and repeated over-use of acronyms makes it unnecessarily difficult to follow. Sometimes they are only defined after they have been in use for some time, sometimes they are not given any definition at all.

Good lectures and nice data, very well and understandable English, and written in clear and simple English, yet some of the lectures need to be reviewed due to errors in recording or in numbers

En realidad el diseño de un reactor aérobico depende de la edad celular mas que de un TRH, para calcular cuanta purga y recirculación es necesaria. Después el sistema ARB y algunos otros me gusto bastante, pero lo veo un toque introductorio

Very informative I have a better understanding of the requirements and different stagers of the Septic tanks and waster water plants.

greetings !! the course is well designed. but many places calculations is not explained well. some numbers are taken from where is not explained. overall it's good course for beginners.
