Physical-Chemical Treatment Processes

3 credits

Principles and design of major physical-chemical unit processes used in water, wastewater, and hazardous waste treatment, with emphasis on particle removal and redox processes. Specific focus areas include precipitation, coagulation, flocculation, granular media filtration, membrane filtration, and chemical oxidation. Development of mathematical models and evaluation of current design practice will be examined. Recommended: CEWA 543 and CEWA 544. Offered: Sp.
