Course content
Laboratory exercises are realized in blocks, while the individual blocks are focused on the following general topics: 1. Biological sludge dewatering evaluation of flocculant efficiency based on CST test. 2. Clarification with inorganic coagulants. 3. Removal of organic substances from wastewater by adsorption (process kinetics, equilibrium). 4. Analysis of contaminated soils and sludges. Determination of NECs in water and soil samples (FTIR spectroscopy). 5. Determination of potential toxicity of substances to activated sludge based on respiratory activity of microorganisms. 6. Removal of dyes from wastewater by ozonation.
