Goal

Students get knowledge about the technical basis of environmental management. The main goal is to master the skills to recognize problems that occur in the work of industrial and power plants. Laboratory exercises aimed at introduction to laboratory work, the methods of measurement, process control.

Outcome

Successful completion of the study program the student receives general abilities that are used for professional quality performance. Get ability to analyze complex technological processes and their impact on the environment. Setting up the basic equations of balance.

Theoretical teaching

Characteristics and comparison of processes and plants for the purification of gases, Air protection, The values ​​and ways of reducing emissions of polluting components of the typical processes and plants, Water protection, Characteristics and allowable concentrations of pollutants of components, determine the concentration of polluting components, processes, tools, equipment for sewage treatment, The processes and equipment in waste management, Collection, transport, waste separation at source and processing, recycling, thermal and biological treatment, disposal

Practical teaching

Introduce students to different types of plants in the field of environmental protection through slides, films and foils, The calculation of polluting components, Monitoring air pollution, The distribution of polluting components in the environment, Calculation of material and heat balance devices for the separation, Selection of separation of solid and gaseous pollutants from waste gas components, Calculation of concentration and flow of pollutants in waste water components, calculation of material and heat balance device, Selection of Wastewater Treatment Calculation of growth of municipal solid waste, Equipment selection for waste treatment, Selection and sizing of equipment to prevent hazards due to the appearance of noise and vibration, Determining the concentration of SO2 in the flue gases based on sampling of flue gases and the measured values, Determination of solid particles in flue gases, Preparation and public presentation of seminar papers with discussions.

Attendance requirement

There are no requirements to attend courses, in terms of the previously passed courses.

Resources

Considering that for the course is not yet completed a textbook, materials for lectures are submitted to students in printed and electronic form. Laboratory measurement system (LMS)- apparatus for determining components of pollutants in flue and waste gases.
