| Objectives of the Course: | This is an introductory course on the treatment of municipal and industrial wastewater. Students will learn the most widely used techniques for treating water and/or wastewater to water quality requirements. Student will develop anunderstanding of quantitative and engineering principles related to the topic, including scientific fundamentals such as chemistry, microbiology, mass transfer. Students will learn and apply engineering design principles for unit operations, including design methodology, design criteria, regulatory requirements, economic considerations, and design alternatives. |
