About this course
Water treatment and desalination is one of the fastest-growing and most essential sectors within the water and energy industries. This comprehensive course is designed to equip learners with essential theoretical knowledge and practical skills for designing, operating, and maintaining Reverse Osmosis (RO) desalination plants.
We’ll begin by exploring the fundamentals of desalination, the physical and chemical principles behind water purification, and a deep dive into the main system components including pumps, filters, membranes, and control systems.
The course covers system design fundamentals, capacity calculations, equipment selection, and membrane specification for different applications. Participants will also learn how to design process configurations and operational scenarios using specialized software tools.
Key topics include water disinfection, chlorine dosage calculations, membrane cleaning programs, storage procedures, routine maintenance, and a practical introduction to basic plant control systems.
Additionally, the course offers hands-on training in conducting Silt Density Index (SDI) testing, troubleshooting common system issues, and optimizing plant performance to maximize water production and minimize energy consumption.
