Objectives of general skills
- Imagine, design, implement and operate compounds, products and materials to specific properties and physical, chemical and biochemical solutions/processes leading to obtaining these materials by integrating needs, contexts and issues (technical, economic, societal, ethical, safety and environmental).
- Identify complex problems to be solved and formulate the specifications by integrating client needs, contexts and issues (technical, economic, societal, ethical and environmental).
- Implement a chosen solution/product in the form of a drawing, a schema, a plan, a model, a prototype, software and/or digital model.
- Evaluate the approach and results for their adaptation (optimisation, quality, environment, safety/security).
- Mobilise a structured set of scientific knowledge and skills and specialised techniques in order to carry out missions of chemical engineering and materials science, using their expertise and adaptability.
- Master and appropriately apply knowledge, models, methods and techniques specific to the field of chemistry and materials science.
- Analyse and model a problem/process/producing pathway by critically selecting theories and methodological approaches (modelling, calculations), and taking into account multidisciplinary aspects.
- Identify and discuss possible applications of new and emerging technologies in the field of chemistry and materials science.
- Assess the validity of models and results in view of the state of science and characteristics of the problem.
- Communicate and exchange information in a structured way - orally, graphically and in writing, in French and in one or more other languages - scientifically, culturally, technically and interpersonally, by adapting to the intended purpose and the relevant public.
- Argue to and persuade customers, teachers and a board, both orally and in writing
- Use and produce scientific and technical documents (reports, plans, specifications, etc.) adapted to the intended purpose and the relevant public.
- Adopt a professional and responsible approach, showing an open and critical mind in an independent professional development process.
- Show an open and critical mind by bringing to light technical and non-technical issues of analysed problems and proposed solutions.
- Exploit the different means available in order to inform and train independently.
UE's Learning outcomes
The aim of the wastewater treatment course is to broadly present all issues related to water pollution and technological solutions available to reduce or eliminate it, paying particular attention to the recovery or treatment of the final sludge and economical aspects. At the end of this course, students should be able to: Qualify and identify aqueous pollution following the origins of the wastewater; Interpret analysis reports based sanitation standards; Describe treatment techniques of urban and industrial wastewater (pre-treatment, biological, chemical and physical treatments); Size some traditional works such as primary settling tanks, activated sludge bioreactors based on existing models; Understand new treatment technologies specifically for industrial pollution; Manage or treat waste from these treatments.
UE Content
The wastewater treatment course is introduced by a part describing the different interactions between water, soil and air, the concepts of water quality, biotic index and discharge standards depending on the type of water (urban, industrial), and the effects of water pollution on aquatic ecosystems. This part is illustrated by specific examples of aqueous pollution: nutrients, pesticides, PAHs, and metal ions (Hg, As, etc.) The main methods of analysis and characterisation of wastewater are presented. The treatment part is divided into two main sections: the urban water treatment (mainly biologically) and treatment of industrial wastewater. For urban water, primary traditional treatments (mechanical, physical and chemical), secondary (biological / chemical) and tertiary (elimination of refractory carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus) are explained, as well as some examples of sizing works for given pollution treatments. For industrial water, an operations panel is taught and specific applications are considered (petrochemical industries, surface treatment, etc.). A final part is devoted to the treatment and recovery of sludge. There will also be some studies of industrial wastewater treatment (treatment of waste water in textile, chemical, surface treatment, etc.).
