Description | |||
Employability Skills | |||
Learning Outcomes and Application | This unit describes the skills required to evaluate system performance and investigate and report on optimisation of anaerobic bioreactor processes.This unit applies to those working as technical staff with a specific responsibility for optimising mixed, fixed and suspended media anaerobic bioreactor processes in wastewater treatment plants.The skills and knowledge described in this unit must be applied within the legislative, regulatory and policy environment in which they are carried out. Organisational policies and procedures must be consulted and adhered to, particularly those related to measuring and testing, investigation and manufacturers' specifications. Those undertaking this unit would work autonomously, performing sophisticated, tasks in a familiar context. No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to unit at the time of publication. | ||
Duration and Setting | X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting. Competency should be assessed in an actual workplace or in a simulated environment, with access to equipment and infrastructure appropriate to the outcome. Competency should be demonstrated over time to ensure the candidate is assessed across a variety of situations. Consideration must be given to holistic assessment for this unit. Refer to advice in the companion volumes. Assessors must satisfy the NVR/AQTF mandatory competency requirements for assessors. |
