Water and Effluent Treatment Plant Mechanical Maintenance

Water and effluent treatment plants keep African factories, mines and municipalities running and compliant, but their pumps, blowers, mixers and dosing systems face harsh, corrosive duty. This programme equips maintenance teams to keep treatment plant equipment reliable. Delegates learn the maintenance needs of the mechanical assets that drive each treatment stage and how to plan work around continuous operation.
