1.00 Credits
This course is designed to train a person in laboratory skills necessary to attain a "C" water laboratory technician license. Water treatment processes cannot be effectively controlled unless the operator has some means to check and evaluate the quality of water being treated and produced. By relating laboratory results to treatment plant operators, the system can function efficiently and safely. Parameters and testing procedures for alkalinity, hardness, chlorine residual, general laboratory safety and practices, jar tests, laboratory glassware, metric sys- tem, pH, quality assurance, standard solutions, and turbidity are the main topics discussed in lecture and demonstration.

1.00 Credits
This course is designed to train a person in laboratory skills necessary to attain a 'C" wastewater laboratory technician license. Wastewater treatment processes cannot be effectively controlled unless the operator has some means to check and evaluate the quality of wastewater being treated and produced. By relating laboratory results to treatment plant operators, the system can function efficiently and safely. Parameters and testing procedures for alkalinity, biochemical oxygen demand, dissolved oxygen, general laboratory glassware, metric system, pH, quality assurance, seeded B.O.D. tests, solids analysis, and standard solutions are the main topics discussed in lecture and demonstration.
-
3.00 Credits
Special courses and workshops dealing with specific areas of environmental technology, especially water/wastewater technology. Lab fee $7.00.
-
3.00 Credits
A study of the sources and types of solid and hazardous wastes. Regulatory compliance issues dealing with the collection, storage, reporting, and disposal of such wastes will be presented with an emphasis on RCRA Subtitle D and C rules. Resource recovery methods of municipal and industrial wastes will also be introduced.
-
3.00 Credits

This course is designed to train a person in laboratory skills necessary to attain a "B" water laboratory license. Water treatment processes cannot be effectively controlled unless the operator has some means to check and evaluate the quality of water being treated and produced. By relating laboratory results to treatment plant operators the system can function efficiently and safely. Parameters and testing procedures for metric system, laboratory, glassware, quality assurance, standard solutions, alkalinity, pH, turbidity, DPD Colorimetric Chlorine Test, Calcium Carbonate Stability Test, Membrane Filtration Test, Coliform Test, EDTA Test For Hardness, NBS Thermometer, lab technician rules and regulations, and laboratory safety are the main topics discussed in lecture and demonstration.
