5 courses with the subject EPP, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
EPP 110Intro to Power Plant Operator 2 0 02
This course provides a general overview of power generation theory and the methods and equipment employed in the electrical power industry. Topics include power plant procedures, power plant terminology, professional behavior, communication, and safety. Upon completion, students will have a basic knowledge of power generation, power plant operations, the role of an operator, and working conditions in the field. EPP 112 Fuels and Combustion 3 0 0 3 This course covers fossil fuels and combustion as they relate to the electrical power production field. Topics include the study of fossil fuels, characteristics of fuel and combustion, fuel/air ratios, and fuel handling equipment. Upon completion, students should have an understanding of fossil fuels and combustion as they occur in a typical power plant. EPP 210 Power Plant Systems 2 2 0 3 This course covers the general operations and function of major mechanical, electrical, and emissions control systems employed in fossil-fueled, electrical power generating plants. Topics include the function and interaction of major power plant systems including operation of pumps, heat exchangers, valves, compressors, and electrical switchgear. Upon completion, students should be able to describe the function of major plant systems, interpret schematic diagrams, and describe general operational considerations. Course Description 110
This course covers operational and maintenance considerations, general design features of steam and combustion turbines, and associated support systems. Topics include general information on power plant operation, operational consideration, component configuration, control, protective systems, mechanical and electrical support systems, and efficiency considerations. Upon completion, students should be able to demonstrate understanding of steam and combustion turbine generator components and support systems and describe general operational and maintenance considerations.
This course provides an overview of state and federal environmental regulations as they apply to water, air, and hazardous waste generation. Topics include current and proposed environmental regulations, power plant effluent and waste streams, and basic environmental control systems and equipment. Upon completion, students should be able to demonstrate knowledge of power plant waste streams, environmental impacts, environmental regulations, and system/processes/ equipment used for control.
