Waste treatment and valorization

Description

Objectifs

At the end of this module, the student will have understood and be able to explain:
- the legal and usual definitions of wastes in France.
- the strategies for waste treatment
- the principles of unit operations and processes commonly used in solid waste reduction, treatment or valorisation (chemical, biochemical or thermal processes).


The student will be able to:
- identify basic rules and policies for an environmental problem, and use it to define a technical problem or to propose an adapted solution
- quantify the dispersion of air pollutants from industrial sources
- determine the valorisation potential for an industrial waste (or gas effluent or wastewater)
- analyse and design processes the treatment or valorisation of solid wastes
