COURSE TITLE: Advancing Sustainable Materials Management
COURSE NO: C01-021
COURSE PROVIDER: Gilbert Gedeon, P.E.
Advancing Sustainable Materials Management
Course Highlights

This online engineering PDH course presents the facts and statistics about the generation and disposition of municipal solid waste (MSW) over time in the United States. It examines the disposing of waste in landfills, recycling, composting, and combustion with energy recovery.

 

Approximately 262 million tons of MSW was generated in the United States in 2015. Understanding how waste is generated and disposed of is important for managing scarce materials.

 

This report analyzes MSW trends in generation and management, materials and products, and economic indicators affecting MSW. It also includes a section on the generation of construction and demolition (C&D) debris, which is not a part of MSW, but comprises a significant portion of the non-hazardous solid waste stream.

 

This 1 PDH online course is applicable to civil, environmental and sustainability engineers and other technical personnel who are interested in gaining a basic understanding of waste management on the individual and household level.
Learning Objectives

This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:

  • Knowing where MSW comes from and how it is disposed of
  • Understanding how to manage materials in order to maximize economic efficiency
  • Learning when recycling, composting, and combusting with energy recovery should be used
  • Familiarizing with the Sustainable Materials Management (SMM) process

COURSE TITLE: Control and Containment Technologies for Hazardous and Toxic Waste
COURSE NO: C10-002
COURSE PROVIDER: Gilbert Gedeon, P.E.
Control and Containment Technologies for Hazardous and Toxic Waste
Course Highlights

This online engineering PDH course provides guidance on the design of site specific remedial technologies at uncontrolled hazardous waste sites. These remedial technologies typically include containment, treatment, disposal systems.

 

Control and containment technologies are those remedial systems that are used primarily for management of contaminants onsite to prevent excursions to the air or ground water. Control and containment remedial techniques are usually undertaken where the volume of waste or hazard associated with the waste makes it impractical or impossible to dispose of the contamination offsite or to treat the waste or contaminated material onsite. Site control and containment remedial techniques are often implemented along with treatment systems to minimize the volume of material requiring treatment.

 

This 10 PDH online course is applicable to civil, environmental and geotechnical engineers, as well as design and construction personnel involved with hazardous and toxic waste remedial activities.

Learning Objectives

This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:

  • Waste collection and removal
  • Contaminated groundwater plume management
  • Surface water controls
  • Gas control
