教育目標

The aim of this course is to provide students with an in-depth understanding of global water challenges and the sustainable technologies and strategies developed to address them. The course covers advanced and emerging technologies for the treatment and management of diverse wastewater streams and runoff, including municipal, residential, industrial, agricultural, and urban sources. Students will also explore the principles and practices of drinking water treatment, water resource protection and conservation, and rainwater harvesting systems. Through case studies drawn from the instructor’s project implementations across four continents, the course offers a unique perspective on overcoming barriers to the scaling, validation, and practical deployment of innovative water technologies, bridging the gap between laboratory research and field applications.
