Course Learning Outcomes: Upon the successful completion of this course, students will be able to:
NoLearning Outcomes
1 Change of principles in reaction kinetics of plug and continuous flow reactors can be evaluated by observation and measurement.
2 Change of principles in reaction kinetics of batch reactors can be evaluated by observation and measurement.
3 The effect of temperature on reaction rates of different reactor types can be evaluated by observation and measurement.
4 Aeration constant which is determined the system performance in aeration can be obtained by experimentally.
5 By using Jar Test equipment optimum chemical doses can be determined which might be useful in design of water treatment units removing turbidity from surface water supplies.
6 Optimum chemical doses can be determined with the help of observation and experimental results from lime-soda softening method that is used for the removal of hardness from water.
7 The basic principles of sedimentation operations can be evaluated by observation of column sedimentation experiments.
8 Use of activated carbon for the removal of color can be evaluated by observation and measurement.
9 The principles of conditioning and dewatering of sludges from treatment operations can be evaluated by observation and measurement.
10 Removal of COD by aerobic bacteria can be observed experimentally and evaluated by measurements.
