Carbonate buffering systems of natural waters: acid and base equilibrium; Inorganic species in natural waters: solid dissolution and precipitation equilibrium; Metal behavior in natural waters: metal-ligand complex formation; Redox reactions in natural waters: equilibrium and kinetics; Particulate matters in natural waters: aqueous surface chemistry.
Intended Learning Outcomes
CILO-1: Apply the acid-base chemistry to assess the natural water quality and identify the pollution distribution pattern.
CILO-2: Design and construct a physical model and facilities that meet the contaminants' removal needs.
CILO-3: Create solutions that optimize physical, chemical, and biological treatment process design while considering relevant constraints.
CILO-4: Stay abreast of the most recent developments in water pollution control and integrate this information into their own work through self-directed study and expert collaboration.
