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 covered. Design of solid and hazardous waste disposal systems will be completed. The processes for investigation and remediation of contaminated waste sites are also presented. The course culminates in the application of hydrogeology and hazardous waste engineering to the cleanup of a contaminated hazardous disposal site.
