ENO10183 - Ecotechnology for Water ManagementInformation for students studying in 2013

Please contact the School of Environment, Science and Engineering to confirm details prior to acting on this information.

Unit Description

This unit explores ecological engineering solutions relevant to the water cycle, that assist in creating water and wastewater infrastructure for human settlements, question: “How can we create human settlements which mimic the closed cycle structure of ecosystems using natural technologies (with minimum energy and chemical requirements)?” The movement and fate of water, carbon and nutrient pollutants are examined, particularly at the household and small settlement (eco-village) level, with reference also to large settlements. The unit introduces students to engineering modelling techniques (using Excel spreadsheets) and draws on practical local examples of the eco-engineering craft.
