COURSE TITLE: Environmental Quality and Border Security: A 10-Year Retrospective
COURSE NO: C04-060
COURSE PROVIDER: Gilbert Gedeon, P.E.
Environmental Quality and Border Security: A 10-Year Retrospective
Course Highlights

This online engineering PDH course provides basic information on environmental quality and protection in the context of existing and proposed border security infrastructure and measures.

 

Border security is an important national priority, and environmental protection in the border region is of critical importance, given the rich natural resource endowments of the region. The shape and form of security infrastructure installed along the border is a critical factor affecting these areas of special concern. Additional installation of security infrastructure along the border will have a large impact on the region, presenting both challenges and opportunities to enhance security while preserving or even improving environmental sustainability.

 

There are mainly five key overlapping challenges in which environmental protection intersects with border security. These include, tourism and recreation economy; habitat integrity and wildlife corridors; water management; flooding, trash and sediment control; Hazmat and emergency response; and air quality.

 

This 4 PDH online course is applicable to environmental engineers who are interested in learning more about improving border security infrastructure while preserving environmental sustainability in the region.
Learning Objectives

This P.Eng. continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:

  • Familiarizing with the overlapping challenges between border security and environmental protection
  • Gaining a general overview on the demographic and economic context in the border region
  • Understanding the environmental protection and border security context
  • Learning about the challenges and opportunities presented in the region
  • Understanding the emergency response management and agreements at the federal, state and local levels
  • Exploring several case studies in different areas along the border region

COURSE TITLE: In Situ Thermal Remediation - Part 1
COURSE NO: C09-006
COURSE PROVIDER: Gilbert Gedeon, P.E.
In Situ Thermal Remediation - Part 1
Course Highlights

This online engineering PDH course provides guidance for the appropriate screening and selection of in situ thermal remediation (ISTR) technologies, including steam enhanced extraction injection, electrical resistivity heating, and thermal conductive heating.

 

A significant number of sites are contaminated with high level of organic contaminants. These contaminated sites include hundreds of Federal installations and thousands of private facilities. The contaminants in these sites, especially non-aqueous phase liquids (NAPL), have been difficult to treat with conventional technologies such as groundwater extraction, bioremediation and soil vapor extraction. More aggressive technologies have been sought to address these conditions. These technologies include in situ chemical oxidation, surfactant/solvent flushing, and ISTR methods. ISTR methods represent the most aggressive and effective of these techniques.

 

This 9 PDH online course is applicable to environmental engineers, geologists, hydrogeologist and soil scientists who are interested in improving their knowledge on the appropriate use of in situ thermal remediation (ISTR) technologies.
Learning Objectives

This P.Eng. continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:

  • Familiarizing with site characterization data necessary for the screening and designing of remediation systems using the three ISTR technologies (TCH, ERH, SEE)
  • Gaining a general overview of multiphase flow and multi-component mass transfer in the subsurface and how elevated temperatures can enhance these processes for the removal of contaminants
  • Learning about technology screening and feasibility studies for ISTR
  • Understanding bench and pilot scale studies to determine if ISTR is an appropriate means to remediate a site
Course Document
In this professional engineering CEU course, you need to review the course document titled, "In Situ Thermal Remediation - Part 1”, which is based on chapters 1 to 5 of the US Army Corps of Engineers document “Design: In Situ Thermal Remediation”, dated May 2014, reference EM 200-1-21.

COURSE NO: C04-059
COURSE PROVIDER: Gilbert Gedeon, P.E.
Ozone Depleting Substances (ODS) Destruction in the US & Abroad
Course Highlights

This online engineering PDH course discusses the sources of ozone depleting substances (ODS) in the United States and abroad and defines the best practices for the safe, environmentally sound collection, recovery, transport, and destruction of these substances. In addition, this course explains the challenges associated with the safe destruction of ODS and assesses the costs for the ODS waste management process.

While the global ODS phaseout is underway, a large amount of ODS is in equipment and products such as refrigerators and air conditioners (as refrigerant and foam blowing agent), foam contained in buildings, and fire protection systems and fire extinguishers, as well as in stockpiles held by countries and industrial and commercial users. Together these sources are referred to as ODS banks.

 

This 4 PDH online course is intended for environmental, sustainability, industrial, and mechanical engineers, as well as others interested in learning about the best practices for destruction of ODS.
Learning Objectives

This P.Eng. continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:

  • Familiarizing with the sources of ODS
  • Learning about the best management practices regarding the process of ODS destruction
  • Familiarizing with ODS destruction technologies and facilities in the U.S. and worldwide
  • Gaining perspective and metrics on the international efforts to destroy ODS
  • Understanding the financial considerations of ODS recovery, transportation, and destruction costs
