EA4002 Environment Infrastructure Syllabus – Anna University PG Syllabus Regulation 2021
OBJECTIVES:
The main objective of this course is designed to provide a general understanding of various issues and approaches to planning, designing, and maintenance of Infrastructure. The major emphasis in this course will be on water supply, sewerage, storm water drainage and solid water management.
UNIT I INTRODUCTION
Concepts of basic needs, formation of objectives and standards. Data requirements for programme planning of urban networks and service; feasibility planning studies for structure the infrastructure systems.
UNIT II WATER SUPPLY
Planning water supply; resource analysis quality of water system design; technological choices of alternatives – Issues related to the choice of centralized city water supply versus decentralized systems
UNIT III STROM WATER MANAGEMNT
Sewerage and Storm Water Drains (Need Assessment in the context of Urbanization, Planning Considerations and Norms, Basic Design Parameters and Appurtenances). Waste generation process in cities
UNIT IV WASTE WATER MANAGEMENT
Waste water disposal systems including storm water drainage, system designs, nodal facilities, technological and environmental considerations. Issues related to hydrological and geographical and development parameters – eutrophication. Biological concepts in environmental sanitation
UNIT V SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT
Sanitation technologies, their relevance to incremental growth of urban areas. Low-cost sanitation technologies and concepts as related to Indian and third world country contexts Sewage Treatment Plant and Water Treatment Plant (Components, Planning Considerations, Basic Design Parameters).
TOTAL: 45 PERIODS
COURSE OUTCOMES:
CO1 Knowledge of feasibility assessments for planning the infrastructure systems.
CO2 Ability to conceptually plan/ design waste management in simple context.
CO3 Understanding the impact biological concepts in environmental sanitation
CO4 Understanding sanitation technologies and how they relate to the gradual expansion in urban areas
