Operators, utility plant supervisors, manag-ers, and engineers can all benefit greatly from the practical information provided in this course.David Daniels, Mechanical & Materials Engineering, Austin, TXW13: Water treatment 201This course reviews the topics covered in Water Treatment 101 and build on those to provide design and technical details on designing water treatment systems using supplier’s equipment information. Unit pro-cesses covered in this course are pretreatment softening using lime and soda ash, sodium cycle ion exchange for softening, demineralization of pretreated raw water using cation/ anion/ mixed-bed ion exchange sys-tems, reverse osmosis, and EDI. Boiler water chemistry guidelines and chemicals feeds for boiler chemistry control for high pressure power plant boilers, combined cycle plants, and industrial boilers (up to 1500 psi) will be discussed. Advanced wastewater treatment concepts for power plants, industrial plants, and refineries will be included with recycle and reuse when feasible.Kumar Sinha, Private Consultant, Frederick, MDW14: Advanced Ion exchangeThis workshop is designed to build on basic ion exchange principals and will provide the opportunity to acquire an in depth knowledge of how ion exchange resins can be used in applications other than traditional softening and deionizing applications. The workshop is divided into four sections.1. Ion exchange fundamental theories and a review of the four basic types of ion exchangers, how their properties differ, and how they are used.2. Capacity calculations for any virtually any ion and solution and how to make preliminary calculations to determine if ion exchange is feasible and/or practical.3. Trace ion removal, principal of concentration difference, an over view of selective resins, and brief discussion of how some of the more com-mon trace contaminants can be treated.4. Identification of problems causes, troubleshooting approaches, clean-ing strategies, and how to set up spreadsheet models of operating ion exchange systems that normalize operating data.In order to get the most out of this workshop, students will need to bring laptops that have MS Office software including Excel.Peter Meyers, Resin Tech, Inc, West Berlin, NJW15: reverse osmosis - Back to the Basics, design and operation The application of reverse osmosis (RO) has grown rapidly over the last 15 year. However, some of the basics have been lost in shuffle. Further-more, many times professionals and operators familiar with ion exchange are now faced with operating RO systems with little or no training. This Workshop covers the basics of RO, from sound design to proper oper-ating techniques. Fouling and concentration polarization, data collection and normalization, cleaning and storage are just some of the topics included in this Workshop. This Workshop is intended for all who need to understand the basics of RO.Jane Kucera, Nalco Company, an Ecolab Company, Naperville, IL8 The 76th Annual International Water Conference®, November 15-19, 2015IWCContInuIngeduCatIonWorkshopsW16: Fundamentals of evaporative Water treatment for steam gen-erating eor Processes Evaporative water treatment may seem complex at surface level, but once the underlying principles are understood, evaporation system de-sign and operation become very straightforward. This course is designed to explore everything from the fundamentals of evaporator technology to its integration into various EOR processes: steam injection processes such as SAGD and CSS. Course matter will cover the basics of produc-ing water suitable for steam generation (either drum boilers or OTSG’s) and maximizing water recycle by employing concentration and crystalli-zation systems. A particular emphasis will be placed on water chemistry design implications and unit operations such as falling film evaporation and crystallization will be covered in-depth. Several real world case stud-ies will be examined to reinforce theoretical principles.Greg Mandigo, Aquatech International Corp., Hartland, WIW17: solutions for Power Plant elgs: understanding your Plant and creating a roadmap to compliance Wastewater discharges from power plants across the US continue to fall under tighter and tighter scrutiny by federal, state, and local regulatory agencies. National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) per-mits today often specify very low numerical limits for discharge of heavy metals and other constituents that were unheard of when the plants were originally designed and constructed. The proposed amendment to the Steam Electric Power Effluent Limitation Guidelines (ELGs) is poised to add additional technology-based limitations on discharge of certain contaminants such as mercury, arsenic, and selenium to various power plant wastewater streams, such as wet FGD purge, that were previously regulated as low volume wastewaters and subject to minimal federally mandated limitations. This workshop will provide participants with an understanding of the new power plant ELGs and details on the various options available to comply with the requirements of the rule. The instructors will present participants with a roadmap to guide them in analyzing the wastewa-ter sources within their own power plant as well as provide them with resources to evaluate the economic and regulatory impacts relative to the timing for implementation. Throughout the course of the workshop, the participants will walk through this process of investigating and evaluating options and developing a practical plan for compliance with the new pow-er plant ELG rule using a theoretical representative coal fired power plant.Colleen Layman, P.E., HDR, Inc., Ann Arbor, MI; James Beninati, P.E., HDR, Inc., Pittsburgh, PA; Michael J. Soller, Bowen Engineering, Indianapolis, INW18: Produced Water otsg scaling and corrosionThermal oil recovery operations require large quantities of high pressure steam. Produced water, water separated from the emulsion produced by the oil wells, is the most readily available and efficient source of boiler feedwater. Unfortunately, produced water contains many impurities that can cause a variety of scale and corrosion problems in the system. This workshop will focus on the major scale and corrosion challenges posed by operating once through steam generators (OTSGs) on produced wa-ter. Produced water chemistry and major unit operations for pretreatment will be reviewed. Mineral scale formation and coke formation on OTSG heat transfer surfaces will be examined in detail including methods for diagnosing, monitoring and mitigating these deposition problems. Major corrosion mechanisms such as oxygen corrosion, erosion corrosion and steam system corrosion will also be discussed as will the special challenges for monitoring and preventing those damaging reactions. Par-ticipants will be encouraged to consider OTSG scale and corrosion prob-lems in the broader context of total plant operation and the impacts of water recycle and system design in the SAGD process will be discussed.Martin Godfrey, Nalco, An Ecolab Company, Eagan, MNW19: electrodeionization (edI)Electrodeionization (EDI) is a hybrid of two well-known processes, ion-ex-change deionization (IX) and electrodialysis (ED). It was developed to allow the production of deionized water without the use of the hazardous acid and caustic that are required to regenerate ion exchange resins. EDI is now over 25 years old and is used extensively in many industries, especially in the production of deionized water for pharmaceutical formu-lations, power generation and manufacture of microelectronics/semicon-ductor devices. It is usually employed as a polishing demineralization step with reverse osmosis (RO) upstream as the roughing demineralizer. This workshop will start by reviewing the principles of the EDI process, how it differs from IX, how EDI modules are constructed, and EDI feed water requirements. It will then focus on practical aspects of EDI system design, operation, maintenance and troubleshooting.Jonathan Wood, Evoqua Water Technologies, Lowell, MAW20: cooling Water treatment Programs and guidelines When switching from Fresh to reuse Water makeupThis workshop will cover guidelines to be used in developing a cool-ing water treatment technology going from fresh to recycle waters as makeup. These guidelines will identify possible concerns and potential benefits with recycle water. A step by step approach is provided not only for existing cooling tower water systems but also new systems that can handle almost any recycled waters. A number of case histories are pro-vided. Attendees are encouraged to bring not only any questions but also details on their cooling tower water systems and the recycle water quality being considered. A must workshop for operators, utility managers, and for water treatment suppliers.Paul Puckorius, Puckorious & Associates, Inc, Arvada, COthursdAy, noV. 19; 1–5:00 PmW2A**: Ion exchange technology and Practical operating Practices (repeated from sunday)This workshop provides a detailed review of the various ion exchange processes for softening and demineralizing water as well as preparation for boilers, cooling, and process applications. A section on how to eval-uate systems, their resin, operation, and water quality of ion exchange units is an excellent troubleshooting and informative portion of this workshop. A review of the different ion exchange resins available along with the newest developments and how those can be applied to provide specific water quality is a must for water treatment system operations. This is a great opportunity to ask questions and solve problems.Wayne Bernahl, W. Bernahl Enterprises, Elmhurst, ILW21: Proper design for Ion exchange softeners in sAgd or cyclic steam operationsIon exchange in SAGD waters, both brackish and produced, is usually limited to softening for OTSG makeup. Both are usually lime softened, and often contain high TDS levels, low hardness to TDS ratios and foulants such as oil. This course will explain the two different processes, WAC or SAC ion exchange, reasons for picking one or the other, cleaning and regeneration methods, as well as compare capital and operating costs. It will be useful to both design engineers and operators.Donald Downey, The Purolite Company, Paris, ON, CanadaW22: de-oiling Produced Water for In situ oil sandsUpstream of “Produced Water Treatment” in SAGD or CSS, water that has been separated from the bulk bitumen/dilbit phase, contains varying amounts of hydrocarbon. If not removed from the system this hydro-carbon will negatively impact the performance of Boiler Feed Water pre-treatment equipment such as Lime Softening, Ion Exchange and Evaporators. This introductory course looks at the fundamentals of the De-oiling system. We will explore the purpose and system design, of specific equipment such as Skim Tanks, Induced floatation (ISF and IGF), as well as Oil Removal Filters (ORF’s). We will also discuss industry standards, chemistry, and lessons learned.Chris Graham, C.G.Consulting, Inc., Calgary, AB, Canada9Hilton Lake Buena Vista in Walt Disney World Resort®, Orlando, FL USAW23: Water and Wastewater treatment for natural gas development The ongoing development of the unconventional natural gas market was made possible by developments in the fields of directional drilling and hy-drofracturing. Hydrofracturing requires large volumes of water, processing of that water to use in hydrofracturing, and handling of the return water from the well after Completion of hydrofracturing. As hydrofracturing water comes in contact with shale, some of the soluble shale constituents dissolve into the hydrofracturing water. Current options for handling of hydrofracturing water include treat-ment for reuse, treatment for discharge, and deep well disposal. The fo-cus of this course is to provide a foundational understanding of the use of water in hydrofracturing, and the disposition of return water (flowback and produced water) from hydrofractured wells. Areas of emphasis include hydrofracturing water preparation, treatment of flowback water for reuse, evaporation-crystallization of hydrofracturing water, and overall econom-ics of water management. The course serves as a sound introduction to the area for those wishing to learn about shale gas development, and provides detailed information for professionals who may be working with shale gas water.John Schubert, P.E., HDR Engineering, Sarasota, FLW24: uF, ro and edI maintenance and cleaning Presentation of common practices in the maintenance of ultrafiltration, reverse osmosis and deionization systems, including best practices for off-line clean-in-place process as well as on-site membrane cleaning practices membrane and system life and minimizing operations cost. For ultra-filtration and reverse osmosis the training review will cover preventive maintenance practices, spares replacement frequencies, and non-scheduled maintenance repairs. There will be a detailed discussion of membrane maintenance practices, including why cleaning is important, when CIP or onsite site cleaning should be triggered, the common foulants, preparation of cleaning solutions, standard cleaning procedures, tips and shortcuts, and when off-site membrane cleaning should be considered. Attention will be focused on the key performance indicators for RO/NF membranes and hollow fiber ultrafiltration membranes that should trigger a membrane cleaning process and the variation in procedures and solutions for onsite cleaning for RO/NF membranes for removal of silt, biological materials, naturally occurring organics, calcium carbonate, iron and silica as well as UF membranes for removal of biological materials, silt, naturally occurring organics, and iron. There will also be discussion of membrane autopsies, when they are needed and how to interpret the results. With the increasing use of elec-trodeionization technology such as continuous deionization the instructor will also touch on best practices in determination when unit cleaning is re-quired as well as proper chemical cleaning and off site cleaning practices.Robert Cohen, Evoqua Water Technologies, LLC, Rochester, NYW25: Wastewater treatment for energy and chemicalsSubjects discussed: 1. Identification of wastewater streams2. Selective segregation of wastewater streams3. Pretreatment of segregated streams4. Terminology & Microbiology of wastewater treatment5. Primary wastewater treatment unit operations6. Secondary wastewater treatment unit operations7. Solids production, its treatment and disposal managementRafique Janjua, Fluor, Sugarland, TXW26: mine Water treatmentMining activities have resulted in significant environmental impacts all over the world. Local communities, state, and federal authorities are en-forcing stricter effluent discharge limitations on new and existing facilities. Mine water management, handling of acid mine drainage, and water reuse are some of the major challenges in the mining industry. Mining processes, mine water characteristics, current practices and emerging physical/chemical and biological treatment technologies pertaining to mine water management and treatment will be the focus of this workshop. Conventional and new physical/chemical technologies for removal of heavy metals, arsenic, selenium and other oxyanions will be reviewed. Cyanide chemistry and treatment technologies will be presented. Tech-nologies to meet the latest stringent sulfate discharge limitations also will be discussed. The growing emphasis on mine water reuse and technolo-gies to make reuse possible will be considered. Interest is growing in biological treatment as an economically viable solution for removing various constituents from mine water. Mining efflu-ents can contain nitrogen in a variety of forms. When explosives such as ANFO are used, ammonia and nitrate are present. In gold mining where cyanide extraction is used, CN, SCN, OCN and NH4-N are present. All of these can be removed biologically through nitrification/denitrification processes. Coal and copper mine effluent may be contaminated with selenium present as selenate or selenite. These contaminants can be reduced to elemental selenium, a particulate form of the mineral, which can then be separated from the water phase. Particular attention will be given to MBBR (moving bed biofilm reactor) technology, which has been used successfully in several mining applications. All technologies discussed will include detailed information such as pilot study results as well as case studies and performance data for full-scale installations. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn about the latest de-velopments in water management and treatment for the mining industry.Kashi Banergee Ph.D., P.E., BCEE, Veolia, Moon Twp., PA; Caoline Dale, Veolia, Cary, NCW27: electrolyte simulation, an Introduction to electrolyte chemistryThe purpose of this beginner course is to introduce the attendee to the key contributors that create the water properties we all know: pH, Alkalinity, vapor pressure, conductivity, concentration effects, density, and mineral scaling. The class will begin with describing the properties of pure water, hydrogen bonding and relating this property to waters boiling and freezing points. Next, the ability of water to polarize will be explained and with that the impact on solubility. Time will be reserved for Q&A with respect to how these properties impact field observations. This discussion will be aided by hands-on examples using electrolyte simulation software. The course is strictly science-based and is not intended to instruct in design or operations.AJ Gerbino, OLI, Denville, NJIWCContInuIngeduCatIonWorkshops10 The 76th Annual International Water Conference®, November 15-19, 20152015 IWc eXhIBItsThe IWC Exhibit Hall is the place to be for attendees (and exhibitors) to continue their educational experience beyond the classroom The IWC Exhibit Hall offers an additional opportunity to learn practical and innovative solutions for the industrial water treatment industry from industry leaders, with more than 100 different exhibits featuring consultants, vendors and suppliers.
