Basic Math and Applied Science for Waterworks Operators
March 8 - 12, 2010
The Hotel Roanoke and Conference Center
Roanoke, Virginia

Do you need to brush up on your applied math skills? Are you dealing with the basic sciences associated with water treatment operations? Nearly everyone who works at a waterworks facility is facing these challenges.

To address this training need, the Virginia Department of Health (VDH) in conjunction with Virginia Tech developed a short course that teaches math and science through real-world, water treatment applications. It is an intensive course that builds from introductory, basic skills on day one and progresses to the application of many important principles. Topics include the calculation of chemical feed rates, interpreting pump curves, interpreting water quality data, selecting the best coagulant dosage, calculating filter rates, interpreting water treatment regulations, and much more.
