Advanced Industrial Wastewater Treatment
Credit Hours 3 - Description With a worldwide focus on water quality and management, the fate of wastewater generated by industry is more important than ever. This 3-hour interactive online course will review chemical, physical and biological treatment technologies for industrial wastewater and industrially impacted groundwater:
It is assumed that students already have a working knowledge of industrial wastewater treatment, either through their own experience or through taking the course 'Basics of Industrial Wastewater Treatment' also offered on RedVector.com.
Purchased individually this course sells for $149.85
Advanced Stormwater Treatment: Design
Credit Hours 3 - Description This 3-hour interactive online course leads the student through evaluation and design of stormwater treatment systems. Stormwater management is receiving increased scrutiny because of EPA Phase II regulations. It is assumed that the student already has a working knowledge of stormwater management, either through prior experience or the Red Vector.com course, “Introduction to Stormwater Management.”

Basics of Industrial Wastewater Treatment
Credit Hours 1 - Description MTBE. Perchlorate. Arsenic. Nitrate. Each day it seems that we learn of another potential threat to our drinking water, our fisheries and our way of life. This 1-hour online course will discuss these common water contaminants and many others, and what can be and is being done to remove them. With a worldwide focus on water quality and management, the fate of wastewater generated by industry is more important than ever.

Onsite Wastewater Treatment - Disinfection
Credit Hours 1 - Description Onsite wastewater treatment systems collect, treat, and release about 4 billion gallons of treated effluent per day from an estimated 26 million homes, businesses, and recreational facilities nationwide (U.S. Census Bureau, 1997). These systems include treatment units for both individual buildings and small clusters of buildings connected to a common treatment system. This 1-hour online course presents the design considerations for disinfection for onsite systems. Disinfection for onsite systems is typically accomplished using either chlorination or ultraviolet disinfection. The material for this course is taken from a recently published EPA document on Onsite Wastewater Treatment. The course also includes a reference section for use by the student.

Onsite Wastewater Treatment - Dosing
Credit Hours 1 - Description Onsite wastewater treatment systems collect, treat, and release about 4 billion gallons Description Onsite wastewater treatment systems collect, treat, and release about 4 billion gallons of treated effluent per day from an estimated 26 million homes, businesses, and recreational facilities nationwide (U.S. Census Bureau, 1997). These systems include treatment units for both individual buildings and small clusters of buildings connected to a common treatment system. This 1-hour online course presents design of dosing systems. While many onsite wastewater systems are conventional gravity systems, the use of pumps and siphons for dosing is becoming more common. Design of dosing systems is not extremely complex but does involve some hydraulic design. Much of the material for this course is taken from a recently published EPA document on Onsite Wastewater Treatment. It is supplemented by the author’s experience in design of these systems and a spreadsheet that makes the computations relatively straightforward.

Onsite Wastewater Treatment - Flows & Quality
Credit Hours 4 - Description Onsite wastewater treatment systems collect, treat, and release about 4 billion gallons of treated effluent per day from an estimated 26 million homes, businesses, and recreational facilities nationwide (U.S. Census Bureau, 1997). These systems include treatment units for both individual buildings and small clusters of buildings connected to a common treatment system. This 4-hour online course presents information regarding the design flows to be used for residential and commercial developments. It also presents information on the quality of this wastewater. The fate of the pollutants in effluent is also presented. The material for this course is taken from a recently published EPA document on Onsite Wastewater Treatment. The course also includes a very extensive reference section for use by the student.

Onsite Wastewater Treatment - Intermittent Sand Filters
Credit Hours 1 - Description This 1-hour online course describes intermittent sand filters, their applications, design and performance in onsite wastewater systems. Intermittent sand filters provide an economical choice for advanced treatment, beyond that achieved by a standard septic tank and drain field. This course is based on EPA''s Onsite Wastewater Treatment Systems Manual, February 2002. This course is intended for designers that have an interest in better treatment than a standard onsite system. This course includes a multiple-choice quiz at the end.
Purchased individually this course sells for $49.95
Onsite Wastewater Treatment - Nutrient Removal
Credit Hours 1 - Description The two most common problem nutrients in onsite wastewater treatment are nitrogen and phosphorus. This 1-hour online course discusses the types of systems available to remove these two nutrients and the effectiveness of these systems. The material is taken from a recently published EPA document on Onsite Wastewater Treatment. This course includes a multiple-choice quiz at the end.
Purchased individually this course sells for $38.95
Onsite Wastewater Treatment - Recirculating Sand Filters
Credit Hours 2 - Description This 2-hour online course describes recirculating sand filters, their applications, design and performance in onsite wastewater systems. Recirculating sand filters provide an economical choice for advanced treatment, beyond that achieved by a standard septic tank and drain field. They are particularly applicable to commercial sites and to serve multiple residences. This course is based on the EPA''s Onsite Wastewater Treatment Systems Manual, February 2002. This course is intended for designers that have an interest in better treatment than a standard onsite system. This course includes a multiple-choice quiz at the end.

Onsite Wastewater Treatment - Septic Tanks
Credit Hours 2 - Description Onsite wastewater treatment systems collect, treat, and release about 4 billion gallons of treated effluent per day from an estimated 26 million homes, businesses, and recreational facilities nationwide (U.S. Census Bureau, 1997). These systems include treatment units for both individual buildings and small clusters of buildings connected to a common treatment system. This 2-hour online course presents the design considerations for septic tanks and for septage. While septic tanks are often taken for granted, they provide primary treatment for wastewater and are an extremely vital part of an onsite wastewater system. The material for this course is taken from a recently published EPA document on Onsite Wastewater Treatment. The course also includes a very extensive reference section for use by the student.
