Part 1 Fundamentals of chemistry for environmental engineering: basic concepts from general chemistry; basic concepts from physical chemistry; basic concepts from equilibrium chemistry; basic concepts from organic chemistry; biochemistry; colloid chemistry; nuclear chemistry. Part 2 Wastewater and wastewater analysis: basic concepts form quantitative analysis; instrumental methods of analysis; turbidity; colour; standard solutions; pH; acidity; alkalinity; hardness; disinfection; chlorides; dissolved oxygen; biochemical oxygen demand; chemical oxygen demand; nitrogen; residue; iron and magnganese; flouride; sulfate; phosphorous and phosphate; grease; volatile acids; volatile organics; trace inorganics.
The purpose of this text is twofold: to bring into focus aspects of chemistry which are particularly valuable to environmental engineering practice, and to lay a groundwork of understanding in the area of specialized quantitative analysis, commonly referred to as water and wastewater analysis.
