Objectives of the Course
The aim of this course is to examine the engineering approaches for wastewater treatment based on the basic principles to protect Water Quality. The theoretical and practical design of wastewater treatment processes are discussed in detail. The course includes physical, chemical and biological wastewater treatment processes. In addition, with the help of homework and problems to be given for the application, students are designed to improve their design principles better. The design and operation of wastewater treatment processes are given in detail.

Learning Outcomes PO MME
The students who succeeded in this course:
LO-1 Explain water treatment systems. PO-3 PO-3 Make use of the knowledge they have in order to find a solution to problems by analyzing, comparing and questioning them and can carry out original research in the related field on their own
PO-8 PO-8 Transfer in a systematical way the latest developments in Environmental Engineering and their field of study reinforcing with qualitative and quantitative data to the groups either concerned with the field or not by verbal, visual and written means
