| This course aims to provide students with a strong background in low-cost technologies for the treatment, disposal and reuse of wastewater in small population communities in peri-urban and rural areas.
At the end of this course the student should be able to: · Understand the basic physicochemical and biological processes in natural treatment systems. · Know the design principles of low-cost natural treatment systems (stabilization ponds; filters; constructed wetlands; land systems). · Understand the advantages and disadvantages of the various systems. · Have a comprehensive understanding and critical awareness of engineering topics related to the sustainable management of wastewater. |
