Wastewater Reuse and Sanitation in Developing Regions

Learning goal
To provide chemical engineers with an overview and case studies for sanitation and wastewater reuse projects in developing regions to enable an understanding of the variation of solutions when chemical engineers deal with sanitation and wastewater reuse in developing regions. 

Course overview
Chemical engineers have a role to play in supporting the improvement in, and access to, sanitation in developing countries. The challenges faced are unique to each developing region and chemical engineers working in this area need to be aware of incorporating region specific design in support of promoting wellbeing and improved living standards in developing regions. The course will take you through a series of sanitation projects demonstrating engineering barriers and processes to support overcoming them and provide you with forward thinking ideas and innovative engineering tools for solving regional issues.
