CE1304 Environmental Engineering Syllabus


CE1304 ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERING 3 0 0 100


OBJECTIVE
This subject deals with treatment of water and wastewater including estimation of water and sanitary sewage (excluding industrial waste water). On completion of the course, the student is expected to know about the design principles involved in treatment of municipal water and wastewater. (The detailed design of treatment units are covered under the subject Environmental Engineering Design and hence the same is not covered under this subject).
