| Summary |
|---|
| The course provides general information about water treatment. Attention is paid to the treatment of various types of water and all technological processes used in the processing and production of drinking water and special water for various industrial applications (heating plants, boiler rooms, feed water). |
| Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit |
|---|
| The aim is to acquaint students with the basic technological processes of water treatment for drinking and industrial use. Understand the individual technological principles and basic technological parameters. |
| Course Contents |
|---|
