    Introduction to

    Environmental Engineering
    What is Environmental Science?
    • Science can be differentiated into the social sciences
    and natural sciences.
    • Natural sciences include
    – core sciences chemistry, biology, and
    physics
    – numerous applied sciences such as
    geology, meteorology, forestry, and
    zoology
    – environmental science is an integrative
    applied science that draws upon nearly
    all of the natural sciences to address
    environmental quality and health issues
    What is Environmental
    Engineering?
    • Environmental engineering uses
    environmental science principles, along
    with engineering concepts and techniques,
    to assess the impacts of social activities on
    the environment, of the environment on
    people, and to protect both human and
    environmental health
    • Environmental engineering requires a
    sound foundation in the environmental
    sciences
    The Interdisciplinary Nature of
    Environmental Science and Engineering

    • Groundwater contamination by leaking


    gasoline storage tanks – material science,
    hydrogeology, geochemistry,
    microbiology, hydraulics AND
    environmental engineering
    • Urban air pollution – chemical/mechanical/
    automotive engineering, meteorology,
    chemistry, AND environmental
    engineering
    Key Elements of Modern Environmental
    Science and Engineering

    • Based on chemistry – environmental


    quality described by chemical composition
    of the system
    • Quantitative – magnitude of the problem
    and feasibility of the solution are described
    numerically
    • Driven by government policy, which is
    increasingly set on the basis of risk
    Course Objectives

    • Provide an overview of key topics in


    environmental science and engineering
    • Gain an understanding of the underlying
    scientific, engineering, and regulatory
    concepts in each topical area
    • Learn several quantitative approaches for
    environmental assessment and problem
    solving
    Primary Topics
    • Core environmental science concepts
    • Water quality
    • Water treatment
    • Water supply systems
    • Wastewater collection systems
