Water and wastewater characterization Water and wastewater treatment

L. Di Palma - Course materials freely available on Sapienza e-learning platform.

Front-end lectures and exercises.

Face to face (unless otherwise specified by Sapienza)

Written test: two exercises Oral test: five written open question on theoretical aspects of wastewater treatment processes. Evaluation criteria for the written test: procedure correctness, numerical results accuracy, correct results interpretation. The final grade is calculated by adding the written grade to the oral grade and dividing by 2.
