Learning outcomes
KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING:
The student will develop detailed knowledge of management technologies and optimization of processes for the treatment municipal and industrial wastewaters and drinking water. Such knowledge will allow scientific approach to solve complex and applied engineering problems with clear reference to the management and implementation issues typical of chemical and environmental engineering.
CAPACITY TO APPLY KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING:
The course enables students to acquire advanced technical knowledge for the interpretation of the projects, the identification of systems and the measurement and optimization techniques for management the plants for treatment of urban and industrial wastewaters and drinking water. The use of advanced methods to solve applied problems will allow approach comparable to that commonly used in the advanced labor market.
TRANSVERSAL SKILLS:
The approach to the optimization of engineering works and environmental and chemical plant will increase the degree of independence in terms of the critical choices in the management phase and of learning ability in the phase of full-scale data analysis.

Program
Law analysis in force, in matters of: drinking waters, waters protection from pollution, waste and treatmement sludge with particular care to role state waters company; Measure systems of operating parameters (mass and hydraulic load): on-line measure systems for macro and micro pollutants and process parameters. special test for process control (sour, aur, nur, etc); Mass balances of hydraulics, carbon, solids , energy, nitroigen; Control and management of drinking water treatment plants (membrane processes, ionic exchange, coagulation, filtration, sedimentation and disinfection); March tables of the waste water treatment plant. Management data analysis for waste water treatment plant in full scale; calculation of the operating parameters of processes, calculation of the specific parameters for each operative units

Development of the examination
LEARNING EVALUATION METHODS
The evaluation will be written and following possible oral examination during which it is expected to be discussed the topics related to management and optimization of wastewater and wastes treatment plants

LEARNING EVALUATION CRITERIA
To successfully pass the evaluation of learning, the student must demonstrate the understanding of the concepts presented in class and the acqusition of the principles of management and optimization of wastewater and wastes treatment plants

LEARNING MEASUREMENT CRITERIA
During the examinations will be evaluated the understanding of the theoretical and experimental principles of the treated topics and the ability to management and optimization of wastewater and wastes treatment plants

FINAL MARK ALLOCATION CRITERIA
The final mark is attributed with minimum grade of 18/30 associated with complete knowledge of the treated topics. Additional points up to 30/30 will be awarded based on the general and specific skills. The evaluation "cum laude" will be given to students with elevated outstanding and critical exposition of the arguments.
