Detail předmětu

Designing of Facilities in Waste Water Treatment Technologies

FCH-MA_ENG14Ak. rok: 2024/2025

The course provides theoretical knowledge and practical skills to design facilities in waste water treatment plant (WWTP). The complex project of the municipal WWTP is solved in 3–4 member team and it is focused on theoretical, computational, and engineering designs of each facility: pumping stations, waste water (WW) pretreatment, biological treatment, and sludge management. In this case, the course is also focused on innovative technologies material transformation of sewage sludge, membrane technologies, technologies for reuse of treated WW and the technology to remove organic pollutants from WW. The course provides an experience of teamwork of the complex design of WWTP.

Učební cíle

The course focuses on the designing of facilities in waste water (WW) treatment technologies, especially on the designing of municipal waste water treatment plant (WWTP). The team work on the WWTP design is carried out in a 3–4 member team focusing on the team leadership, text part, calculation part, drawing part, and economic part. The course is focused on work in the wider area of WW management, thus preparing students for design activities, constructions, legislation, engineering activities, and operators of WWTP.
The student will gain experience in team work with the focus on the design of waste water treatment plant technologies. The experience will be from the point of view of construction, technology, calculation, and economic parameters.
