Summary
The object provides view about utilisation with water in particular types of industrial productions and agriculture,namely in context with requirements on water quality for particular demand sides technological bundles),types of waste (polluted)waters,possibilities their pre-treatment and treatment,incl.treatment and disposal screenings. Special emphasis is put on backward utilize (recirculation) treated water in technology,possibilities of water discipline and qualitatively inferior types of water utilize.
Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit
The aim is summarize knowledge about water management in various sectors of industry and agriculture. Students in this course also examine water use in individual companies and suggests possible optimizations.
