Summary |
---|
The aim of the course is to provide comprehensive information on available remediation technologies, to outline some new trends and innovative approaches to cleaning contaminated sites. Old ecological burdens at industrial sites, chemical warehouses, accidental accidents and spills are a constant threat to the environment. Efforts to eliminate and correct them are evident in all developed societies. Removal is expensive and in many cases very difficult to solve. |
Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit |
---|
The aim of the course is to collect information on available remediation technologies. Students will be able to take samples from contaminated sites and evaluate their analysis. |
Course Contents |
---|
1. Introduction. Economic evaluation of remediation technologies.
2. Technology for treating unsaturated zones and solid materials. In situ technology - biological (bioventing, bioremediation, phytoremediation and rhizoremediation).
3. Physical and chemical in situ procedures (chemical oxidation, venting, solidification and stabilization, heat treatment methods, covering, sealing and encapsulation, vitrification).
4. Ex situ - biological technology (treatment of soil and other solid materials after decontamination, composting).
5. Biostabilization and bioimobilization. Landfarming. Slurry phase system.
6. Chemical and physical ex situ methods (chemical extraction, chemical oxidation/reduction, dehalogenation, physical-mechanical separation, soil washing and solid materials, solidification and ex situ stabilization, combustion, thermal desorption).
7. Technology of groundwater and leachate purification. In situ - biological technology (supported bioremediation, biosparging, bioslurping, biotransformation, bioreduction, biological reactive barriers, atteunation).
8. Chemical and physical methods (air sparging, in situ chemical oxidation, heat treatment methods, vertical barriers, deep injection).
9. Ex situ - biological technologies (bioreactors, artificial wetlands, root cleaners).
10. Chemical and physical methods (air stripping, adsorption and absorption, chemical oxidation, precipitation, coagulation, flocculation, flotation).
11. Technology of soil air and air cleaning - biological (biofiltration).
12. Chemical and physical processes (washing, membrane separation, oxidation, adsorption, combustion).
13. Nanotechnology for remediation of ecological burdens. Principles of nanotechnology in the environmental field. Technology of contaminated groundwater remediation in situ. Examples of the use of nanotechnology in the environment. |
