EnvE 325

Chemical and Physical Processes


Description

Theory of chemical and physical processes and their application in environmental engineering.
Prerequisite: ENV E 220.
Corequisites: CIV E 290 or STAT 235, CIV E 295, CIV E 330. Credit cannot be obtained for both ENV E 222 and ENV E 325.

Learning Outcomes

- Understand the concepts and principles of important physical and chemical processes in environmental engineering, such as coagulation and flocculation, sedimentation, filtration, and disinfection.
- Know what major physical and chemical treatment processes will be needed in typical water and wastewater treatment plants.
- Use mass balance to analyze a plug flow or complete mix flow reactor with first order reaction.
- Calculate the volume of sedimentation basin, as an important preliminary design parameter, in typical water and wastewater treatment.
- Calculate the volume or surface area needed, as an important preliminary design parameter, in typical drinking water filtration.
- Determine the dosage needed for disinfection of drinking water.
