EVE 591 Modeling and Simulation of Wastewater Processes II

 

COURSES TAUGHT AT MERCER UNIVERSITY

EGR 126: Introduction to Problem Solving
Prerequisite: Be a fully admitted student in the School of Engineering or have written permission from the dean.
Special attention is given to development of an organized thought process in which analysis, modeling, and construction of algorithms lead to structured procedures for solving non-trivial problems. A focus on data objects in the problem domain, and the development of abstract models of these objects then leads to the use of object-oriented programming techniques with a high-level language such as C++.

EGR 302: Junior Engineering Honors II

Prerequisite: EGR 301

Each student works with a faculty advisor in accordance with a personal project plant that was approved for the remainder of the engineering honors experience. This course is graded S/U.

EGR 402: Senior Engineering Honors II

Prerequisite: EGR 401

406. Design and Analysis of Water Systems (3-0-3)
Prerequisites: EVE 290 and EVE 384.
Analysis and design of water treatment systems beginning with an overview of the sources of water and discussion of water quality parameters. Fundamental theory and design of conventional water treatment facilities is presented followed by the principles used to design advanced water treatment facilities. A design project is required along with a plant trip.

420. Solid Waste Management (3-0-3)
Prerequisites: EVE 290
Chemical, mechanical and biological equipment and instrumentation for the processing and disposal of solid wastes are studied and designed. Handling and recycling of conventional, household and industrial wastes, including energy conversion. Special requirements for hazardous and toxic wastes. Economic values and costs impacts. Government and EPA regulations regarding generation and disposal of wastes on local, state and national level. Plant trips and design projects.

EVE 445L. Senior Environmental Engineering Laboratory (0-3-1)
Prerequisites: Senior standing; EVE 402, EVE 405 and 420.
An introduction to environmental laboratory analyses, including those for determining physical, chemical, and microbiological characteristics of water and wastewater. Design, conduct, and analyze experiments using modern techniques, skills and tools. Unit operations commonly employed in industry will be evaluated.

EVE 480.Introduction to Senior Design (0-3-1)

Corequisites: TCO 341 and EVE 405

Course will provide guidance for the selection of team members and topic for the senior design project to be completed in EVE 487 and EVE 488.  To successfully complete the course, s student must belong to a team (3 to 4 persons) and briefly outline the project goals to be implemented in EVE 487 and EVE 488.  A seminar series will be conducted to facilitate student introduction to potential industrial clients and projects.  Seminar attendance is required to obtain a satisfactory course grade.  This course is graded S/U.
