Schedule

Schedule online

Units courses prerequisite and corequisite

Prerequisite or corequisite units are presented within each program

Learning unit contents

Application of chemical engineering concepts to wastewater treatment processes and to sludge management

Learning outcomes of the learning unit

At the end of the course, the student will be able to understand wasterwater treatment and sludge management processes and to assess the associated issues.
He/she will be able to propose solutions on the basis of his/her knowledge in chemical engineering.

Prerequisite knowledge and skills

Basic knowledge in chemical engineering

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

Face-to-face seminars combining theory, case studies,  and visits of industrial sites and/or research labs

5 1/2-day of courses (theory + exercices)
2 mandatory visits (wastewater treatment + drinking water treatment)
1 project (numerical modelling of a bioreator for water treatment)

Mode of delivery (face-to-face ; distance-learning)

Face-to-face seminars combining theory, case studies,  and visits of industrial sites and/or research labs

Recommended or required readings

Slides available on e-campus

Assessment methods and criteria

Written exam in January.
Retake in September, the project grade will be kept.
The final grade results from a weighted average between the written exam and the project grade.
Students who do not attend the site visits with no valid reason, will not be allowed to present  the written exam neither in January, nor in September.
