Fundamentals of Combustion
The UK waste industry now relies on its many thermal waste treatment plants, both private and public, to deal with non-recyclable and residual waste streams and to generate useful heat and/or power effectively and efficiently from these feedstocks. Similarly, biomass, medical wastes and municipal sludges are also processed through thermal treatment plants. Fundamentals of Combustion is a two-part course that provides the underpinning knowledge for operating these technologies more confidently and optimising thermal efficiency.

Module 2
Anaerobic Digestion Module 1: A technical overview
The interactive module uses practical examples and visual representations of operational facilities to help explain the theory behind anaerobic digestion. It will introduce you to the microorganism activity and the optimal environmental conditions required and the four-stage process leading to the production of biogas is also explained.
Module 1
Flue Gas Conditioning & Waste Heat Recovery Boilers (Mod 4)
Increasing demand for energy and rising energy prices is placing pressure on UK thermal waste treatment plants, both private and public, to generate useful heat and/or power effectively and efficiently from non-recyclable and residual waste streams (including refuse derived fuels) without posing a risk to people or the environment. This specialist e-learning course provides you with the opportunity to learn more about how flue gas conditioning and waste heat recovery boilers are used to increase efficiency and accomplish this goal.
