The aim of the course:
In this course, to explain the students effect of natural and human nature in groundwater contamination. To each the students, how to measure contaminants and preventation methods.
 
Programme OutcomesCTPOTOA
Upon successful completion of the course, the students will be able to :
PO - 1 : summaries the general knowledge on contaminants of grounwater1,4,131
PO - 2 : describe transport process of contaminants in grounwater1,4,13,151,3
PO - 3 : determinate contaminant transport speed and dispersitivity1,2,4,153,4
PO - 4 : explain different contaminants for different groundwater systems1,41,4
PO - 5 : explain methods for determination protection zones1,3,4,9,151,3,4
CTPO : Contribution to programme outcomes, TOA :Type of assessment (1: written exam, 2: Oral exam, 3: Homework assignment, 4: Laboratory exercise/exam, 5: Seminar / presentation, 6: Term paper), PO : Learning Outcome

 
Contents of the Course
Sources of groundwater contamination, transport process of contaminants, hydrochemical properties of contaminants, determination of contaminant transport speed, dispersitivity and chemical dispersion, different contaminants for different groundwater systems, methods for determination protection zones, regulations and laws related to protection zones.
