Join us at the University of Aberdeen on the Biological Wastewater Treatment and Anaerobic Digestion Course. This 4-day CPD course is open to industry professionals and those specialising in the area of wastewater and solid waste treatment.
The course is intensive and interactive in nature; places are strictly limited to ensure that all participants can engage with the tutor and the group as a whole. This provides the opportunity for everyone to benefit from sharing different experiences, exploring relevant work-related issues and areas of specific interest.
Dr Davide Dionisi, Reader in Chemical Engineering at the university who delivers the course, explains: “This in-depth course describes how to optimise and design biological wastewater treatment and anaerobic digestion processes in order to maximise treatment efficiency while minimising the capital and operating costs. The course starts from the fundamental of biological wastewater treatment, covers kinetics and stoichiometry of biological reactions and shows step-by-step how to develop and solve the mass balances and design equations. The main processes used in the industry are described and the corresponding design equations are developed. The course includes numerical examples and design problems, where the students will be able to work hands-on and apply the theory learnt in the lectures.”
The University of Aberdeen has been named as Scottish University of the Year in the Times and Sunday Times Good University Guide 2019. It was judged to have performed strongly in areas including teaching quality, degree outcomes, and graduate prospects. The Guide has also acknowledged the University’s world-leading medical research, which was recognised earlier this year when Aberdeen was awarded the Queen’s Anniversary Prize – the highest national honour for a UK university.
