Short Course Description
Water contamination is a severe worldwide problem, which is derived mainly due to wastewater originating from households (domestic WW), agriculture and industry. The wastewater are chemically varied depending on their origin and mixed wastewater are the major ?nemesis?, which continuously and chronically pollutes essential water resources such as drinking water, surface water, groundwater and the marine environment. Therefore, it is mostly important to develop and to apply innovative technologies for wastewater treatment, which can protect our limited water resources.
During the course the students will study different processes and mechanisms affecting water pollution, while in parallel learn how to prevent water contamination by treating various types of wastewater. The course will give local examples and study cases from, both, Sweden and Israel, demonstrating how to manage these challenges and conflicts using the best and the most appropriate and innovative available technologies in order to optimized solutions. The course will be given in English and will be delivered via Zoom due to the participation of students from LUND University in Sweden. The course grade will consist of a final exam and a presentation (analysis of a scientific article) given by the students during the course.
