Taught Modules

EG-338 Separation Processes II

This module builds on years 1 and 2 studies of traditional separation processes, extending these to multi-component systems. Short-cut methods are described. The importance of non-ideal behaviour is highlighted in descriptions of azeotropic and extractive distillation. The discussion of absorption is extended to include chemical reactions, and basic knowledge of adsorption and ion exchange separation processes is covered in this module.
EG-M09 Water and Wastewater Engineering

This module aims to deliver a working knowledge of water and wastewater treatment processes. The module will cover various physical, chemical and biological unit operations commonly used in the treatment of water and wastewater. This module will particularly emphasise the design and operational issues related to these unit operations. Moreover, the module will cover regulatory aspects related to water quality and requirements for treatments of drinking water to be fit for human consumption and of wastewater to be disposed of safely in the aquatic environment.
