Air Pollution Control Technology Series Training Tool
What is it?
The Control Technology Series is a self instructional training tool. The training tool is designed to provide a basic overview to those unfamiliar with a variety of air pollution control technologies. The series is broken down into different types of equipment such as:
- wet scrubbers
- carbon absorption
- incineration
- condensation
- electrostatic precipiators.
Some of the topics covered in the modules are:
- What the different types of devices are:
- How they work
- How to tell if they are working correctly
- Causes of decreased performance
- Performance monitoring
Although this training tool is not intended as complete training in the inspection of these devices, it will provide a basic understanding of the different types of devices used. This series is available on CD, videotape (for some technologies) and as a downloadable zip file from the web.
The current series consists of the following topics:
- Electrostatic Precipitators (mactcd2.zip)
- Incineration (mactcd2.zip)
- Carbon Adsorption (mactcd1.zip)
- Wet Scrubbers (mactcd2.zip
- Condensation (mactcd1.zip)
- Absorbers (mactcd1.zip)
