Course Aim: To introduce advanced concepts in drinking water treatment and wastewater treatment to design suitable advanced treatment processes.
Intended Learning Outcomes: On successful completion of the course, the students should be able to; ➢ recognize the environment, health, aesthetic and legislative needs for the treatment of water and wastewater. ➢ discuss technological trends, their drivers and emerging technologies focusing on climate change impact, footprints, green technology, zero emissions, etc. ➢ design and integrate appropriate drinking water and wastewater treatment plant unit processes. ➢ assess and identify problems in existing water treatment and wastewater treatment systems and suggest suitable remedial measures. |
