Course Description and Goals
|
| |
-
Prerequisite: CEE 350. The use of microorganisms to treat domestic and
industrial waste waters for organics and nutrient removal are studied.
Characteristics of individual waste water components and the
appropriate treatment processes to remove these components are covered.
This course investigates the use of biological processes to remove organic
material, some solids, and nutrients from wastewaters of municipal,
industrial, or other origin. The course evaluates microorganism
interactions, metabolism, nutrient requirements, substrate requirements,
environmental conditions controlling growth, and other factors that are
important to understanding microbial activity in biological wastewater
treatment. The course will introduce various kinetic expressions of
biological growth and combine them with fluid transport formulations
through reactors that will allow prediction of reductions in organic
and nutrient concentrations ( i.e. percent-removal) and requirements
of oxygen or other electron receptors. The course will utilize the
course text and other relevant material as necessary.
