At the end of this course you will know how to do a preliminary design of the most widely used wastewater treatment unit operations and how to organize these into a functioning treatment system. Preliminary design means how to determine the number of units, physical configuration, hydraulics, and energy requirement in sufficient detail to know that they can treat a specified volumetric flow to a specified effluent quality level. To do this you need to master the concepts of making the material balance and the energy balance.
Mastery comes with practice, so we will assign a few short problems that offer you the opportunigty to practice. Detailed design of the electrical slupply, the machinery, process control instrumentation, and structural details will not be part of this course, except to occasionally point out a few ideas of special interest.
