This module provides an overview of the fields of Waste and Wastewater, each dealt with in separate lectures. The Waste Management lecture covers waste collection, area cleaning and waste disposal. The Wastewater Treatment lecture covers the different treatment processes of a wastewater treatment plant, including both aerobic and anaerobic processes.
After completing the solid Waste Management lecture, students should:
1. Understand the basic processes involved in operating a sanitary landfill
2. Appreciate the need for waste minimisation in an urban setting
3. Know how landfills are classified
4. Have a broad understanding of the minimum standards
5. Understand leachate and gas production, and their management
6. Understand the concept, and need for integrated waste management, and how to draft integrated waste management plans
After completing the Wastewater Treatment lecture, a student should be able to:
1. Identify the two distinct processes involved in a wastewater treatment system;
2. Identify the objectives of a wastewater treatment plant;
3.Draw a process flow diagram indicating the salient processes that the incoming wastewater would undergo;
4.Understand the principles of Sludge digestion;
5.Understand liquid wastewater treatment.
6.In addition, students should know the symbiotic relationship between a wastewater treatment plant and a landfill site.
