This course examines the treatment, storage, and disposal of solid and hazardous
wastes. Both regulatory requirements and evolving technology associated with
solving modern solid waste disposal problems are discussed. Design of remediation
processes for cleanup of contaminated waste sites are presented. Students will
complete a term design project investigating subsurface remediation
challenges. The course also features laboratory experiences to enhance
understanding of hazardous waste risk, characterization, and treatment.
