Lectures on basic principles, followed by assignments in which students formulate solutions and explain results. ENPM655 Contaminant Transport and Fate in the Environment; (3 credits) Grade Method: REG/AUD. Prerequisite: Basic chemistry, physics and mathematics, including some calculus; knowledge of organic chemistry will be helpful. Formerly ENPM808I. Introduces the physics and chemistry of contaminant migration in various environmental media, including surface water, groundwater, and air. The characteristics of each of these environmental media will be described; then, based on the unique aspects of each medium, the physical, chemical, and biological processes controlling transport in each will be presented. An interdisciplinary approach integrates principles of engineering and natural science to provide both the scientific basis and the quantitative description of contaminant migration, with focus on application of intuitively-based models. Topics include: nature of environmental media, fundamental principles of mass transport, and chemical transformation in various media.
