Summary
In this course attention will be paid to the issue of waste, definition of basic concepts and definitions of waste, the impact on the environment and its protection reasons. Students will be familiar with the various technologies of recycling, recovery and disposal of waste. Students in the classroom visit plants engaged in the removal and processing of waste. In this course are implemented mathematical and physical - chemical application methods, such as measurement and calculation of sieve methods, quartering waste, design optimization charge for heat recovery. Determination of calorific value of wastes. Students will be assigned semester project which will solve practical problems concerning the issue of waste in the environment.
