Where should one start learning if they want to work in the water treatment industry?

I study mechanical engineering. I want to get into water treatment now. May I ask where one should start learning if they want to work in the water treatment industry? Thank you all
In my personal opinion, I used to work in the petrochemical industry; now I work at a newly built factory where my task is related to water treatment. My approach is to start with the chemicals used, and understanding them well gets you halfway there to success
Let’s see what kind of water it is Wastewater? Pure water? I think it should start with water quality analysis,,,
I used to study mechanical engineering as well; now I work on wastewater treatment in oil fields, and I think it’s necessary to start with water quality analysis
Personally, I think it’s better to first cover the lesson on process principles; highly competent water treatment engineers should not only know what to do but also understand why they do it. The process isn’t efficient, making it difficult to work with.
Water treatment is an interdisciplinary field that primarily requires an analytical approach from a chemical perspective; in addition to analysis, processing methods are necessary, as well as mechanical equipment. The use of chemicals is also crucial in this field!
Personally, I think we should start with the process first; water treatment should still be centered around the process.
Thank you all. I’m sure I’ll be able to learn well
Power engineering colleges have a specialty in power plant chemistry focused on water treatment; search Baidu for their courses. Study by course.
