Learning outcomes
------------------------
MM: teoria
------------------------
Knowledge and understanding • have the necessary information for understanding the environmental decontamination processes; • know the main biological, chemical and physical influencing the various treatment processes. Applying knowledge and understanding • be able to define which are the main factors on which they depend yields abatement of pollutants and be able to make evaluations of their control in the management phase of the plants; • be able to understand the mechanisms and dynamics relating to pollutant removal processes. Making judgments • ability to critically understand and discuss biotechnological processes applicable for the removal of pollutants from certain environmental compartments. Communication skills • Demonstrate ability to extract and synthesize relevant information and know how to properly present; • demonstrate the ability to communicate effectively and with the correct terminology. Learning ability • ability to read, understand and review a scientific text of applied ecology and environmental chemistry and bioprocess engineering.
------------------------
MM: laboratorio
------------------------
Ability to graphically represent an environmental biotechnology facility, also (optional) using specific software Knowing the basic chemical and physical analysis of functional characterization of liquid and solid waste matrices Ability to monitor an environmental bioprocess through mass balances
Program
------------------------ MM: teoria ------------------------ Part 1: mass balances in environmental systems, calculation of yields and efficiencies Part 2: enzymatic kinetics, Michaelis Menten equation, Inhibitions, Microbial Growth and Monod equation, Fundamentals of bioreactors for environmental applications Part 3: description and analysis of the processes and systems for the removal of the pollutants in various environmental compartments, by means of biotechnological applications, with particular attention to the treatment water (biological oxidation, nitrification, denitrification, dephosphatisation, etc.), waste with or without energy recovery (composting, anaerobic digestion, aerobic digestion, etc.), air (biofiltration, application of biotrickling filter, etc.). ------------------------ MM: laboratorio ------------------------ Calculation exercises: Units of measurement and dimensional analysis Graphical representation of an environmental chemical process (block diagrams and P & Id) with eventale use of software Laboratory exercises: Monitoring a biotechnology activated sludge plant Experimental mass balance for anaerobic bioreactors Experimental mass balance for anoxic/aerobic bioreactor Gas / liquid mass transfer in environmental biological systems
Examination Methods
------------------------
MM: teoria
------------------------
The exam evaluates the ability reached by the student in relation to: 1. knowledge and understanding of the theoretical basis of biotechnological processes applicable for the removal of pollutants 2. The ability to apply the acquired knowledge to interpret and predict the operation of the decontamination processes of the pollutants under different operating conditions 3. possession of quantitative knowledge to describe mathematically the reactions and to perform the dimensioning and operational monitoring of various process units In detail: The exam consists of a written test, possibly replaced by two partial tests during the course, in which students will be expected to demonstrate the knowledge listed in paragraphs 1-3. The oral test will possibly be integrated on request of the student to supplement the written test

Attendance
As stated in the Teaching Regulations for the A.Y. 2022/2023, attendance is not mandatory. However, professors may require students to attend lectures for a minimum of hours in order to be able to take the module exam, in which case the methods that will be used to check attendance will be explained at the beginning of the module.
