Applicability / Curricular relevance:
All study programs (with year of the version of study regulations) containing the course.

BIBA790 (P110-0035) Civil and structural engineering, Bachelor, ASPO 01.10.2011 , semester 7, mandatory course
BIBA790 (P110-0035) Civil and structural engineering, Bachelor, ASPO 01.10.2017 , semester 7, mandatory course
Workload:
Workload of student for successfully completing the course. Each ECTS credit represents 30 working hours. These are the combined effort of face-to-face time, post-processing the subject of the lecture, exercises and preparation for the exam.

The total workload is distributed on the semester (01.04.-30.09. during the summer term, 01.10.-31.03. during the winter term).
60 class hours (= 45 clock hours) over a 15-week period.
The total student study time is 120 hours (equivalent to 4 ECTS credits).
There are therefore 75 hours available for class preparation and follow-up work and exam preparation.
Recommended prerequisites (modules):

Learning outcomes:
After successfully completing this module, students will have deeper insight into the technical side of waste and wastewater disposal.
Waste Management and Recycling II
 
In the section on waste, students will gain a deeper understanding of the technical function and waste management interactions of thermal waste treatment plants.
Students will be able to deal with technical and planning issues concerning the operation and realization of landfills in connection with their ecological (emissions) and economic effects.
 
Wastewater Treatment
In the section on wastewater, students will become familiar with the principles of physical, biological and chemical oxidation and the elimination of carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus compounds from wastewater.
They will be able to develop complex wastewater treatment concepts and design wastewater treatment plants in accordance with legal requirements and technology standards.
They will understand how to apply advanced design methods on a more in-depth theoretical basis. They will also use complex, computer-aided programs to do so.
Students will be familiar with the evaluation of applied scientific reports and will be able to work and solve comprehensive tasks in a team.
