Overview
Key facts
Delft University of Technology (TU Delft)'s Drinking Water Treatment emphasis is on the effect of treatment on water quality and the dimensions of the unit processes in the treatment chain. After the course one should be able to recognize the process units, describe their function, and make basic calculations for a preliminary design of a drinking water treatment plant.
What you'll learn
- Recognize the process units in urban water services, focusing on basic drinking water technologies.
- Describe the function of these process units.
- Describe the physical and chemical processes involved.
- Make simple design calculations on drinking water treatment plants.

Water XSeriesThis course combined with the courses "Introduction to Water and Climate" and "Urban Sewage Treatment" forms the Water XSeries, Faculty of Civil Engineering and Geosciences, TU Delft.Programme Structure
The course consists of 4 modules:
- drinking water treatment. In this module you learn to describe the important disciplines, schemes and evaluation criteria involved in the design phase.
- Water quality. In this module you learn to identify the drinking water quality parameters to be improved and explain what treatment train or scheme is needed.
- Groundwater treatment. In this module you learn to calculate the dimensions of the groundwater treatment processes and draw groundwater treatment schemes.
- Surface water treatment. In this module you learn to calculate the dimensions of the surface water treatment processes and draw surface water treatment schemes.
