ENVE4432Air Pollution and Emission Control4 ch (3C 1T 3L*) [W]

This course covers the classification, sources, and environmental effects of air pollutants. It includes atmospheric dispersion using the Gaussian plume model and the influence of meteorological conditions such as wind, stability, and temperature on pollutant transport and dilution. Fundamentals of ambient and indoor air quality monitoring, pollutant formation mechanisms in combustion, and control strategies for primary pollutants are explored. The laboratory component includes ambient and indoor air quality measurements, evaluation of pollutant concentrations, and analysis of particulate size distribution and control, with various applied examples including traffic-related emissions. Note: Credit cannot be counted for both ENVE 4432 and ENVT 4432.  

Prerequisites: CHE 2012, and ENVE 3121 with a minimum grade of C.
