CEE 270: Movement and Fate of Organic Contaminants in Waters

Transport of chemical constituents in surface and groundwater including advection, dispersion, sorption, interphase mass transfer, and transformation; impacts on water quality. Emphasis is on physicochemical processes and the behavior of hazardous waste contaminants. Prerequisites: undergraduate chemistry and calculus. Recommended: 101B.
Terms: Aut | Units: 3

CEE 270B: Environmental Organic Reaction Chemistry

With over 70,000 chemicals now in production worldwide, predicting their fate in the environment is a difficult task. The course focuses on developing two key skillls. First, students should develop the ability to derive mass balance equations used to quantify the fate of chemicals in the environment. With so many chemicals having been introduced in the past ~60 years, many of the key parameters needed for mass balance models have not been measured experimentally. The class builds on CEE 270, which developed methods of predicting equilibrium partitioning coefficients. For many situations involving reactions of target contaminants, equilibrium is not attained. The course develops methods of predicting the reactivity of chemicals based upon their chemical structures both qualitatively and quantitatively. natural reaction processes covered include acid-base speciation, nucleophilic substitution, oxidation/reduction reactions, and photochemical reactions. Key treatment ractions (ozone, UV treatment and advanced oxidation) are also covered. Prerequisites: CEE 270, Chem 31B/X.
Terms: Spr | Units: 2-3

CEE 271A: Physical and Chemical Treatment Processes

Physical and chemical unit operations for water treatment, emphasizing process combinations for drinking water supply. Application of the principles of chemistry, rate processes, fluid dynamics, and process engineering to define and solve water treatment problems by flocculation, sedimentation, filtration, disinfection, oxidation, aeration, and adsorption. Investigative paper on water supply and treatment. Prerequisites: CEE 101B (or CEE 162A); CEE 270. Recommended: 273.
Terms: Win | Units: 3
Instructors: Luthy, R. (PI)

CEE 271B: Environmental Biotechnology

Stoichiometry, kinetics, and thermodynamics of microbial processes for the transformation of environmental contaminants. Design of dispersed growth and biofilm-based processes. Applications include treatment of municipal and industrial waste waters, detoxification of hazardous chemicals, and groundwater remediation. Prerequisites: 270; 177 or 274A or equivalents.
Terms: Win | Units: 4

CEE 271D: Introduction to Wastewater Treatment Process Modeling

The course will present a structured protocol for simulator application comprising project definition, data collection and reconciliation, model set-up, calibration and validation, and simulation and result interpretation. This course will include a series of guided simulation exercises evaluating resource consumption (e.g., electrical energy, natural gas, chemicals) and resource recovery (e.g., biogas, struvite, biosolids, recycled water) from a variety of treatment plant configurations. Coursework for all students will comprise guided simulation exercises begun in class. Students may elect to take the course for 2 units by completing a group project evaluating an assigned plant configuration and presenting the results before the class.

CEE 271F: New Indicators of Well-Being and Sustainability (CEE 171F)

Explore new ways to better measure human development, comprehensive wealth and sustainability beyond standard economic indicators such as income and GDP. Examine how new indicators shape global, national and local policy worldwide. Well-being topics include health, happiness, trust, inequality and governance. Sustainability topics include sustainable development, environmental performance indicators, material flow analysis and decoupling, and inclusive wealth indicators. Students will build their own indicator of well-being and sustainability for a term paper.
Last offered: Summer 2016

CEE 271M: Transport Phenomena: Momentum, heat and mass transport (CEE 371M)

Heat, mass and momentum transfer theory from the viewpoint of basic transport equations. Steady and unsteady state; laminar and turbulent flow; boundary layer theory. Prerequisites: fluid mechanics, ordinary differential equations.
Last offered: Winter 2016

CEE 272: Coastal Contaminants

Coastal pollution and its effects on ecosystems and human health. The sources, fate, and transport of human pathogens and nutrients. Background on coastal ecosystems and coastal transport phenomena including tides, waves, and cross shelf transport. Introduction to time series analysis with MATLAB. Undergraduates require consent of instructor.
Terms: Aut | Units: 3-4
Instructors: Boehm, A. (PI)

CEE 272R: Modern Power Systems Engineering

Focus is on Power Engineering from a systems point of view. Topics covered may include modeling of generation, transmission and distribution systems, load flow analysis, transient and steady-state stability analysis. Special emphasis given to modern market operations and dispatch, modeling intermittent controllable power sources, storage technologies, mechanisms for demand response, sensing the grid and the role of market mechanisms for deep integration. Course content may vary year to year.
Terms: Spr | Units: 3

CEE 272S: Green House Gas Mitigation (CEE 172S)

This course will introduce the main concepts of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions measurement and management, and it will explore the main mitigation options for reducing emissions or sequestering carbon dioxide. It will address technical aspects of GHG mitigation via energy efficiency and demand-side management, energy in high-technology industry, distributed power and co-generation, the role of renewable energy in GHG management, carbon sequestration in forestry, agriculture, and geological formations. The course explores policy options, carbon trading and business strategies for GHG mitigation.
