Catalog : CIVE.5680 Environmental Fate and Transport (Formerly 14.568)

CIVE.5680 — Graduate

Id: 003057 Offering: 1 Credits: 3-3

Description

The fate of contaminants in the environment is controlled by transport processes within a single medium and between media. The similarities in contaminant dispersion within air, surface water and groundwater will be emphasized. Interphase transport processes such as volatilization and adsorption will then be considered from an equilibrium perspective followed by the kinetics of mass transfer across environmental interfaces. A professional presentation of a select paper or group of paper concerning a course topic is required.
