| Summary |
|---|
| The course is focused on the field of the dynamically developing environmental technologies for decontamination of soils and ground waters. Students are also acquainted with basic legislation related to ecological loads including methodology for risk analysis. |
| Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit |
|---|
| Acquisition of konwledges from the area of contemporary technologies for decontamination oriented in the area of soils and uderground water. Comprehension of technological principles: thermic methods, physico-chemiocal methods, biodegradable methods. Analysis for determination of actual limits for decontamination on the basis of knowledge the technological efficiency and bulk loads of area. The methods for evaluation of technological efficiency. |
| Course Contents |
|---|
Old ecological loads. The basic concepts and definitive criteria for evaluation of soil contamination.
Foreign matters in soils and underground waters, the basic physico-chemical properties of risk elements. The heavy metals in soils and their migration ability. Geochemical barriers.
Risk analysis. Methods for calculation of risks. Planar and spatial determination of contamination. The possibility of determination of pollution dissemination . The methods of explorations.Biological methods soil decontamination. Principles. Bacterial activity, technology in situ and ex situ.
The case studies: phenols, oil hydrocarbons, PAHs.
Physico-chemical methods for soil decontamination technology. In-situ technology: pneumatic agitation, soil washing, degassing, solidification/stabilisation. Ex-situ technology: oxidation/reduction, catalyzed decomposition, dehalogenization with glycol, soil washing, extraction with solvents, destilation.
The managment with wastes with high content of biodegradable matter. Anaerobic and aerobic technologies.
Thermic methods for soil decontamination. In-situ: evaporisation of vapours from soils, vitrification. Ex-situ: low temperature desorption, high temperature desorption, vitrification, combustion, pyrolysis and steam extractions. Co-combustion of wastes in large power unit.
Other technology for soil decontamination – electrokinetic technologies.
Technology for underground water decontamination: stripping, air sparing, passive protection, bioreactors, biofiltration, filtration, membrane technology, adsorption.
Technology for reclamation of landfills. Monitoring. |
