This elective course is designed primarily for civil engineering students to provide them with the fundamental knowledge required in the water treatment and wastewater treatment sectors. The course is divided into 4 thematic areas: applied water chemistry and microbiology; water analysis; drinking water production processes; and wastewater treatment processes. Among the topics addressed are: principles of chemistry and microbiology specifically invoked in the engineering control of water quality; routine analytical methods associated with water production and wastewater treatment; coagulation; flocculation; clarification (sedimentation and flotation); filtration, chemical stabilisation, and disinfection; preliminary treatment; primary treatment; secondary treatment (activated sludge and biofiltration); sludge treatment; and relationships between effluent and environmental standards.
