Objectives:
Address concepts related to water management and pollution control in urban areas, as well as the design, construction, operation and rehabilitation of facilities and structures for the treatment of water, wastewater, rainwater, water treatment sludge and sewage sludge, and methods for solid waste management.
Skills:
1. Recognition and understanding of integrated water management in urban areas, characteristics and methods of water treatment and water treatment sludge management;
2. Mastery of design, sizing, implantation and operation of wastewater treatment facilities and the management of sewage sludge;
3. Recognition of the type of solid waste and understanding of its physical characteristics, technologies for its treatment and management and valorisation processes.
