Wastewater Treatment
The treatment of industrial wastewaters is a major separations
issue which faces all sectors of the process and manufacturing
industries. Its unique challenges include a product which often
has a negative value, and can be of very variable composition; and
drivers for separation technology which are as often legislative as
economic. In the face of these challenges, the engineer is faced
with a bewildering array of separations options, some very
traditional others high-tech. He or she needs a logical framework
for process evaluation and selection, combined with sufficiently
detailed knowledge to be an informed purchaser of technology.
These objectives are met through the EpSelon product, which
consists of a discursive expert system EpSelon.Expert, an in-depth knowledge base
EpSelon.Ebase and a unit
operations summary costing program EpSelon.Costing.
A one-day intensive foundation course in Wastewater Treatment is
also offered, and companies may opt for an in-house course or may
send staff to an open course.
