Subject aims expressed by acquired skills and competences
The aim of the course is to introduce students with the water cycle in water supply from surface and groundwater collection through water treatment technologies for drinking, utility and technological through hygienic security, its distribution to wastewater management, including the possibilities of sewage and industrial wastewater treatment technologies and subsequent return back into the water cycle. Identify, evaluate and discuss parameters influencing the choice of water treatment technology or wastewater treatment technology.

Summary
The course focuses on the protection of aquatic ecosystems, which requires not only the economical use of water resources but also the treatment of wastewater, ie sewage and industrial wastewater, to a level acceptable for discharge into the environment. With the development of society and the growing demands on the quantity and quality of water used, more and more emphasis is placed on the protection of water resources and increasing the efficiency of wastewater treatment. It also focuses on the context of floods and droughts, which also have a significant impact on aquatic ecosystems in terms of climate change.
