Custom In-Person Training Opportunities

Due to demand, we reopened (and refurbished) our state-of-art-training center near Cleveland, Ohio.

Precipitator Fundamentals & Hands on Troubleshooting

Precipitator Fundamentals are taught through exploring plant specific precipitator issues.  This interactive workshop is facilitated in a collaborative format using active learning.  We will use a schematic of your precipitator and use your operating data and control settings to discuss precipitator performance and operations. While working to troubleshoot issues, we will develop action plans for optimizing equipment and processes.

Overview of Custom Training Format 

The training will be a combination of classroom style and hands on training, centered on your precipitator information (physical, and operational).  The extent to which the above topics are covered will depend upon the knowledge in the group and the requirements of their positions.  We will use your data and walk through data collection and review as we work through issues.
