Lect: 3. Application of fundamental principles to designing water treatment and reuse plants. Development of process designs for a potable water treatment plant, a biological wastewater treatment plant, or a water reclamation and reuse facility by students working in teams. Student work in evaluation of water quality and pilot plant data, screening process alternatives, conducting regulatory reviews and recommending a process for implementation, supported by engineering drawings and capital operating costs. Periodic oral progress reports and a full engineering report are required. Presentations by practicing engineers, utility personnel, and regulators; and field trips to water, wastewater, and water reuse facilities.
