The aim of the course is to teach students methodologies for designing of industrial and environmental facilities (eg. municipal waste water treatment plants) and for composing environmental impact assessment studies.

Students work in teams to design a wastewater treatment facility based on raw data. Work includes the estimation / calculation of design parameters, planning and costing of the installation, as well as the preparation of the relevant Environmental Impact Study. At the end of the semester, the students present orally the results of their work. The work is a continuation of the MΠ554 course.

Upon successful completion of this course the students will be able to:

• Design integrated industrial and environmental processes

• Compile flow charts, top view graphs, P & I diagrams, hydraulic sections

• Estimate the cost of environmental projects

• To prepare technical studies on environmental processes.

• To compose environmental impact assessment studies

• Work autonomously
• Work in teams
• Decision making
• Project design and management

1. Environmental risk assessment and methodology to address it.
2.  Methodology for composing Environmental Impact Assessment Studies.
3.  Mass and energy balances.
4.  Calculation of design parameters for Industrial and Environmental Processes.
5. Financial criteria for the design of Industrial and Environmental Facilities.
6. Design of biological treatment system-secondary clarification.
7. Design of coagulation-flocculation systems for water reuse.
8. Design of filtration systems (sand filters) – disinfection using UV radiation.
9. Design of sludge management system (thickening-dewatering).
10. Design of anaerobic digestion system and biogas utilization.
11. Design of composting systems
12. Design of charts: flow, P&I, hydraulic levels, top view.
13. Cost assesment for Industrial and Environmental processes.
