Course Aim: To make students familiarize with industrial pollution control concepts and techniques by introducing industrial waste management options, and legal & policy aspects.

Intended Learning Outcomes:

On successful completion of the course, the students should be able to;

➢    distinguish industrial waste management from municipal waste management.

➢    explain waste monitoring, reporting and control in relation to national, regional and international policy and legal aspects

➢    recognize importance of in-plant waste management, water and wastewater treatment systems and application of environmental management systems

➢    evaluate options available for planning, designing and execution of industrial waste management programs.

➢    design industrial waste management systems with consideration of operation and maintenance, with the use of Best Available Technologies (BAT)

Course Content:

➢    Introduction to industrial waste: Industrial waste characterization/ testing and basic industrial waste management concepts

➢    Legal and policy aspects: National, regional and international rules and agreements

➢    In-plant waste management: Sustainable manufacturing systems; waste minimization, cleaner production, reclamation and reuse; Environmental Management Systems and related case studies

➢    Industrial waste management: Primary, secondary and tertiary treatment unit processes for industrial wastewater treatment (specialized physical, chemical and biological treatment options); Industrial solid waste characterization, management and their control; Public health risk associated with improper disposal of hazardous waste; Introduction to air pollution control.
