Intermediate Water Treatment
Over 90 percent of Legionnaires’ disease cases are caused by Legionella pneumophilia, which is a harmful bacteria sometimes found in cooling water systems. Water treatment affects all of our everyday lives, from the water we drink to the sewage we flush, from the wash water we discharge to the cooling water used in manufacturing and in buildings. This interactive online course will cover intermediate water treatment in large buildings, and is directed toward the building manager or technician. Operation and maintenance of cooling towers and boilers will be discussed, along with control of water chemistry, dissolved oxygen, solids and bacteria that can lead to scaling, corrosion and fouling of water treatment systems, along with exposure to Legionnaires’ disease.
