	Text Water Quality: Characteristics, Modeling, Modification Tchobanoglous and Schroeder Course Grading Homework 15% Laboratory 20% Mid-term Exams 40% Final Exam 25% Return to Top Course Policies University guidelines on academic integrity will be enforced in their entirety. It is the student's responsibility to be familiar with academic integrity guidelines. Material for exams will be drawn from lecture, reading, laboratory, and homework. The final exam will be cumulative. You are encouraged to work in groups on homework as a forum to exchange ideas. However, the final product must be an individual effort. Homework assignments identical to one another will be marked zero. This policy includes component parts such as a graphs produced using a computer. Homework assignments will be made on most Thursdays and will be due the following Thursday with no late homework accepted except under extreme circumstances and at the instructor's discretion. A list of homework assignments is on page 3 of this syllabus. Acceptable homework must conform to guidelines in the accompanying handout. Unless otherwise directed, laboratory write-ups are due the following laboratory. No late write-ups will be accepted except under extreme circumstances and at the instructor's discretion. Acceptable write-ups must conform to the homework guidelines distributed in the first lecture. Switching of laboratory sections will not be allowed except where a serious and compelling reason exists. Professional decorum is mandatory in both the classroom and laboratory.   Return to Top Course Outline Date Subject Reading Assignment Jan. 27 Procedural business, course overview, sources and uses of water - Jan. 29 Sources and uses of water 3-42 Feb. 3 Water Quality: Overview, gravimetric 43-65, 163-170 Feb. 5 Water Quality: Ionic Species, pH 65-77 Feb. 10 Water Quality: Alkalinity 77-89 Feb. 12 Water Quality: Alkalinity 89-94 Feb. 17 Water Quality: Alkalinity, hardness 170-182 Feb. 19 Water Quality: Dissolved oxygen, organic content 94-122 Feb. 24 Water Quality: Organic content, oxygen demand - Feb. 26 Water Quality: Nutrients, microbiological quality 123-149, 182-207 Mar. 3 Analytical Tools: Reaction kinetics 231-248 Mar. 5 Exam I (Through Water Quality) - Mar. 10 Analytical Tools: Reaction kinetics, mass balance 248-259 Mar. 12 Analytical Tools: Mass balance 267-291 Mar. 17 Analytical Tools: Mass balance, DO sag curve 337-347 Mar. 19 Water Distribution: Basic requirements - Mar. 24 Water Treatment: Introduction 211-224, 443, 444, 450 Mar. 26 Water Treatment: Constituent characteristics 479-487 Mar. 31 Water Treatment: Coagulation, sedimentation 491-506, 571-580 Apr. 2 Water Treatment: Sedimentation, filtration 506-524 Apr. 7,9 Spring Break - Apr. 14 Water Treatment: Disinfection 559-570 Apr. 16 Wastewater Collection - Apr. 21 Wastewater Treatment: Legal and regulatory requirements - Apr. 23 Exam II (Through Disinfection) - Apr. 28 Wastewater Treatment: Overview, primary treatment 446, 451-457 Apr. 30 Wastewater Treatment: Secondary treatment 595-599 May 5 Wastewater Treatment: Secondary treatment 621-633 May 7 Wastewater Treatment: Secondary treatment - May 12 Wastewater Treatment: Secondary treatment, disinfection - May 14 Wastewater Treatment: Sludge processing 648-652 May 19 Final Exam - Tuesday, May 19, 1998, 8:00 AM to 10:00 AM Return to Top Homework Assignments The following homework assignments are due on the dates indicated.
