This course covers the principles of integrated solid waste management. The planning and engineering principles needed to address the growing and increasingly intricate problem of controlling and processing the refuse (solid waste) created by urban societies. Federal regulations and management practices associated with hazardous waste are also covered. Situations dealing with real world settings are covered through worked examples and field trips to solid waste management facilities. Note: Prior to spring 2010, the course title was “Solid & Hazardous Waste Engineering.”
