ENVS 3410 - Air Quality and Control Technologies

Institution:

Utah Tech University

Subject:

Description:

The Air Quality & Control Technologies course is a multidisciplinary course consisting of math, physics and chemistry. Topics include sufficient information on major chemical compounds cause outdoor and indoor air pollution; health and environmental effects of air pollution; pollution prevention; and theory and practice of air pollution control technologies to reduce particulate matter, volatile organic compound (VOC), nitrogen oxide emissions, and sulfur dioxide emissions. **COURSE LEARNING OUTCOMES (CLOs) At the successful conclusion of this course, students will able to: 1. Distinguish the elements and mechanisms of air pollution. 2. Describe current air pollution issues at different scales (from local to global). 3. Survey the adverse effects of primary and secondary air pollutants on human health and the environment. 4. Evaluate methods for control, and prevention of air pollution to meet desired needs within realistic constraints such as economic, environmental, political, health and safety, and sustainability. 5. Assess the mechanisms responsible for the performance effectiveness of each air quality control technology. Prerequisite: ENVS 2210 and CHEM 1210 (Both grade C- or higher). SP (even)
