Abstract
This book evolved from a need to share with undergraduate
students and profesional methods and models for understanding
dynamic environmental problems. When we first undertook the
challenge of educating students in these matters, we were faced
with various text books-none of which satisfied our objectives. The
module in the general environmental engineering field provides
usefull background materials for students, but did not allow them
to explore environmental problems through microcomputers and
modelling application. Module in the environmental engineering,
however, tended to be design for gradute student syllabus, often
focusing on environmental engineering (eg. Wastewater treatment
& disposal, Water pollution, Solid waste management and Air
pollution). The emphasis of these modules was on course based;
hence, the environmental pollution, global warming, wastewater
treatment technology, wastes disposal techniques depth was too
great and the environmental engineering subjects matter too
narrow for our broad educational goals and expectation.
Thus, we had set forth to develop an Environmental Engineering
module text to had at least three objectives. First, the module
needed to discuss some of the broad concepts of introduction to
Environmental problems concept. Second, the module needed
to describe the problem related theory, like water-air pollution
estimation, sources, quality standards, treatment, disposals, and
management.
