This module is designed primarily for engineering students intending to focus in the area of environmental engineering. The module lays a foundation for more intensive modules in later stages by introducing concepts about, among other things, environmental ethics, engineering calculations, and the fundamental biological, chemical and physical processes used in environmental engineering. Applications of these concepts to developing engineering solutions for several contemporary environmental problems are also examined. This module will cover the following topics: Sustainability, Units for Environmental Measurements, Physical, Chemical and Biological Principle, Engineering Approximations, Hydrology, Pollution Transport Processes, Solid Waste Management, Ethics, Environmental Laws and EU Regulation.
