This online engineering PDH course describes the chemical measures taken to retard the corrosion often found in water systems. It also addresses the consequences of radioactivity on facility cooling water systems.

Radiation synthesis is a process that takes place in the reactor coolant system. This phenomenon is limited to the reactor coolant system because of the high flux (radiation) levels that exist in the core region and further complicate chemistry control of the reactor plant.

This 3 PDH online course is applicable to chemical engineers, design and construction personnel, technical staff and facility operators who are interested in gaining a better understanding of the reactor water chemistry.

This online engineering PDH course describes the basics about ozone treatment of cooling towers as a "new technology". Cost benefits of using ozone in treatment of cooling tower water, application considerations, maintenance issues, utility initiatives, performance of cooling tower and laboratory versus case study perspectives are discussed.

The form of oxygen known as ozone has been recognized for nearly a century for its powerful ability to disinfect water.  Cooling tower water must be treated to limit the growth of mineral and microbial deposits that can reduce the heat transfer efficiency of the cooling tower. The use of ozone to treat water in cooling towers is a relatively new practice that is increasing in popularity, and it has good potential for use in commercial building systems.

This online engineering PDH course describes pesticide label requirements for Chemigation, Chemigation system operation and calibration and Chemigation system safety.

Chemigation, or the addition of chemicals to irrigation water, has probably been around for as long as both irrigation and chemicals have been used in agriculture. Chemigation became more widely used in the 1970's with the adoption of center pivot irrigation systems in the Midwest. Backflow prevention is necessary to prevent pesticide contamination of surface water supplies as well as ground water.

This 1 PDH online course is applicable to mechanical engineers, civil engineers, chemical engineers and environmental engineers who are interested in learning more about chemigation in irrigation water.

This online engineering PDH course provides a guide for users on how to utilize the Chemical Transformation Simulator (CTS) tool. 

The Chemical Transformation Simulator (CTS) provides the calculated physicochemical properties of a target chemical and its transformation products, which are predicted as a function of the reaction system of interest. This is accomplished through the integration of cheminformatics applications for the encoding of process science underlying transformation pathways and computational chemistry tools for the calculation of physicochemical properties.

This engineering online PDH course contains a discussion of, and an example calculation of, the density and viscosity of a specified gas at a given temperature and pressure. In this course, the Redlich Kwong equation will be used for calculation of the compressibility factor of a gas. The Sutherland formula will be discussed and used in example calculations. Another method for calculating the viscosity of air at a specified temperature and pressure will also be presented and discussed.

The density and/or viscosity of a gas is often needed for some other calculation, such as pipe flow or heat exchanger calculations. If the gas temperature is high relative to its critical temperature and the gas pressure is low relative to its critical pressure, then it can be treated as an ideal gas and its density can be calculated at a specified temperature and pressure using the ideal gas law.  If the density of a gas is needed at a temperature and pressure at which it cannot be treated as an ideal gas law, however, then the compressibility factor of the gas must be calculated and used in calculating its density. The Sutherland formula can be used to calculate the viscosity of a gas at a specified temperature and pressure if the Sutherland constants are available for the gas.   

This 2 PDH online course is intended for chemical, mechanical and environmental engineers. After completing this course, you will have knowledge about methods for calculating the density and viscosity of a gas at specified temperature and pressure. 

This online engineering PDH course provides guidance on building field capabilities in order to respond to the contamination of drinking water. The course also provides planning and implementation guidance, templates, customizable report forms, and other documentation for Sampling and Analysis (S&A) activities.

When performed in response to possible or credible drinking water contamination, the goal of Sampling and Analysis (S&A) is to confirm or rule out contamination through field and laboratory testing. It is one of the earliest utility-led activities initiated when the utility has activated its drinking water contamination response plan and continues throughout remediation and recovery if contamination is confirmed.

This online engineering PDH course will introduce you to methods for cleaning industrial water systems with chemicals. You will learn about pre-operational cleaning which is performed to prepare water-contacted metal surfaces to receive chemical treatment to provide protection from scale, corrosion and microbiological growth.  You will also learn about remedial cleaning to restore water systems that have been fouled with scale, corrosion products and microbiological growth due to inadequate or ineffective water treatment.  Examples of industrial water systems for which chemical cleaning are applicable are boilers, heat exchangers, cooling towers, and chillers.

Maintenance of an effective water treatment program is essential to minimize scale and corrosion problems in industrial water systems; however, scale and deposits will often form and require remedial cleaning. If not removed, these scale and water-caused deposits may impact the safety of operations personnel, interfere with heat transfer, and cause excessive damage to, or destruction of, the water-using equipment.

This 3 PDH online course is intended for industrial, chemical and mechanical engineers, as well as, maintenance personnel and construction professionals interested in learning about the use of chemicals for cleaning industrial water systems and equipment such as boilers, heat exchangers, cooling towers and chillers.
