Learning outcomes
To present and explain technical knowledgments about executive planning, management and design of wastewater treatment plants.
To illustrate principles and facilities involved in water quality control and remediation of water volumes according with existing italian laws.
Course contents
The first part of the course analyzes executive projects of full scale wastewater treatment plants based on the following phases: active sludge with pre-denitrification by internal carbon, submerged aerated biofiltering systems, oxidization by pure oxygen and by high efficiency air mixers, MBR phases, anerobic sludge digestion, aerobic composting of sludge and urban waste organic fraction.
The second part of the course analyzes executive projects of the following full scale wastewater post-treatment and finishing phases: natural lagoon systems, FWS phytotreatment, onsite SFS phytotreatment systems, odour mitigation tecniques and odour emissions removal by attached biomasses filtering systems
