In this class, you will learn the theory and practice for performance of experiments with bench-scale environmental engineering unit operations, with emphasis on chemical principles and analyses important in environmental engineering applications. There will be emphasis on the chemical theory of procedures, analytical work, and an understanding of the significance or need for such laboratory data for surface and groundwater management and water and wastewater treatment processes and design. The course will consist of two one-hour lectures and one three-hour laboratory period per week. The graduate (5813) and undergraduate (3853) students will generally work together but with more expected from the graduate students in their analyses and reports. The lecture periods will consist of theory and instruction related to content that will be demonstrated or tested during the weekly lab.

This course is taught each semester.
