ENGI-1087Boiler Safety, Plant Types, and Water Treatment
In this course, students will learn the design and operation of pressure relief valves, firing controls, low water level instruments, and a variety of boiler fittings. The student will relate the design and operation of these components according to the jurisdictional regulatory requirements and the applicable national and international codes, including, ASME Section 1, ASME Section IV, ASME Section VIII, ASME CSD-1, and CSA B51.
The students will learn the configuration of energy intensive industrial plants, such as hot oil, wood and biomass processing, liquid hydrocarbon processing, natural gas plants, food processing, and metallurgical processing.
In water treatment, students will study the impurities found in untreated water, their effects and appropriate treatment methods. The course first establishes the necessary fundamental theoretical chemistry underpinnings.
