Introduction: Industrial pollution, Different types of wastes generated in an industry,


Different water pollutants, Air pollutants and solid wastes from industry.

Water Pollution: Identification, quantification and analysis of wastewater, Classification of


different treatment methods into physico-chemical and biochemical techniques, Physico-
chemical methods,General concept of primary treatment, Liquid-solid separation, Design of a
settling tank, Neutralization and flocculation, Disinfection, Biological methods,Concept of
aerobic digestion, Design of activated sludge process, Concept of anaerobic digestion, Biogas
plant layout, Different unit operations and unit processes involved in conversion of polluted
water to potable standards.

Air Pollution: Classification of air pollutants, Nature and characteristics of gaseous and
particulate pollutants, Analysis of different air pollutants, Description of stack monitoring kit
and high volume sampler, Atmospheric dispersion of air pollutants, Gaussian model for
prediction of concentration of pollutant down wind direction, Plume and its behavior,
Operating principles and simple design calculations of particulate control devices, Brief
concepts of control of gaseous emissions by absorption, adsorption, chemical transformation
and combustion.

Solid Wastes: Analysis and quantification of hazardous and non-hazardous wastes, Treatment
and disposal of solid wastes, Land filling, Leachate treatment, Incineration.

Laboratory work: Characterization of wastewater (pH, BOD, COD, Nitrate, Phosphate,


Solids, Turbidity, Alkalinity, Hardness, Dissolved oxygen and fluoride), Ambient air quality
measurement by high volume sampler (Particulate, SOX, NOX), Gas analysis with Orsat
apparatus, Determination of sludge volume index.
