CEV 347E - Unit Operations

Course Objectives

The main objectives of this course are;
1. to gain skills for dimensioning the units of these systems by getting acquainted with the reaction and reactor types used in treatment systems and using mass balance equations,
2. to gain skills for using the fundamentals in the design of water and wastewater treatment plants, through learning the principles of physical and physico-chemical operations used in Environmental Engineering applications.

Course Description

This course provides the basics of physical and physico-chemical operations used in treatment systems and problem solutions related to their applications in water and wastewater treatment with unit operations and processes approach. Reaction and reactor kinetics, flow models and mass balance concepts are also presented to be used for dimensioning the unit operations and processes that are important for Environmental Engineering.
