About the Course: This course will provide a detailed introduction to air pollution control equipment and methods used to control particulate and gaseous air emissions. The course will cover theory, operation, applications, design considerations, inspection strategies, compliance assurance monitoring and regulations for cyclones, baghouses, wet and dry scrubbers, electrostatic precipitators, carbon beds, bio filters, condensers, flares, thermal and catalytic oxidizers. NOx controls like selective catalytic reduction (SCR), selective non-catalytic reduction (SNCR), flue gas recirculation (FGR), and ultra low-NOx burners will also be discussed.

Learning Objectives: Those completing this course will gain a basic understanding of the general information associated with the theory and application of air pollution control devices. Attendees will be able to perform regulatory reviews involving the following emissions control techniques:

  • Control of power plant emissions
  • Control of oxides of nitrogen
  • Control of particulate emissions and ammonia slip
  • Introduction of VOCs and HAPs
  • Introduction of VOC control
  • Introduction to Control of PM
  • Cyclones and Baghouses
