Course Briefing
This course will teach you how to design Effluent treatment plants for an industry or industrial zone. The discussion will start focusing on the basics of the ETP systems and working principles; The course extensively covers all aspects of chemical, bio-chemical, and biological ETP.
​
At the end of the course, you will be able to design an ETP system for different projects.
