Round out and enhance Operators and Technicians plant knowledge within the scope of Siemens Energy supplied equipment and other OEM systems.
Description
The Siemens Energy Water Treatment Familiarization and Operations course is designed to round out and enhance Operators and Technicians plant knowledge within the scope of Siemens Energy supplied equipment and other OEM systems.
The Water Treatment course covers an introduction to the current water treatment technologies at use in the field and at the customer site. Siemens Energy’s interactive training methodology will provide both classroom instruction and equipment walkdowns in the field to raise level of knowledge and familiarity. This course will cover the entire cycle of the water treatment facility, including concentrators, crystallizers, evaporators, osmosis, and hybrid systems as applicable.
A unique feature of this course is flexibility; the instructor evaluates each student to determine their level of experience and knowledge. The instructor then tailors the course to challenge each student, ensuring all of their plant related questions have been answered.
Upon completion of this training, personnel are prepared to effectively participate alongside the Siemens Energy Startup and Commissioning engineers or attend additional advanced training courses (optional training program), dealing with malfunctions and emergencies.
