Prerequisite: CE 203 or ME 224 or CHBE 230 or EES 255. FALL.
-
3.00 Credits
Scientific, technological, philosophical, and social issues surrounding approaches to carbonbased energy and alternative energy resources, management of carbon through sequestration, supplying and treating water for agriculture, communities, and industry, and changing climate impacts on regional distribution of water resources. SPRING.
-
3.00 Credits
An introduction to solid municipal and hazardous waste management including generation, characterization, collection, treatment and disposal.

Prerequisite: CHEM 102a and b and senior standing or consent of instructor. FALL.
-
3.00 Credits
Principles of biology and their application to wastewater treatment processes with emphasis on microbial ecology, bioenergetics, and the role of chemical structure in biodegradability. Utilization kinetics of inhibitory and non-inhibitory organic compounds. Biological process analysis and design (aerobic and anaerobic) for municipal and industrial wastewaters, using a mass balance approach. Prerequisite: senior standing or above. SPRING.
-
3.00 Credits
Introduction to the acquisition and interpretation of environmental data. Principles of chemical measurement, sample collection and sample program design; laboratory safety and good laboratory practices; analytical instrumentation and methods; quality assurance and quality control; and statistical interpretation of data.
