EV4202 Air and Noise Pollution Control Engineering Syllabus:
EV4202 Air and Noise Pollution Control Engineering Syllabus – Anna University PG Syllabus Regulation 2021
OBJECTIVE:
To impart knowledge on types and sources of air pollution, its effects and design of control methods
UNIT I INTRODUCTION
Structure and composition of atmosphere – sources and classification of air pollutants – effects of air pollutants on human health, vegetation & animals, Materials & Structures – effects of air pollutants on the atmosphere, soil & water bodies – Longterm effects– global climate change, Ozone Holes – ambient air quality and emission standards – air pollution indices – emission inventories.
UNIT II AIR POLLUTION MONITORING AND MODELLING
Ambient and stack sampling and analysis of particulate and gaseous pollutants -effects of meteorology on air pollution – fundamentals, atmospheric stability, inversion, wind profiles and stack plume patterns- transport & dispersion of air pollutants – modelling techniques – Air Pollution climatology.
UNIT III CONTROL OF PARTICULATE POLLUTANTS
Factors affecting selection of control equipment; gas particle interaction, – working principle, design and performance equations of gravity separators, cyclones, Fabric filters, particulate scrubbers, electrostatic precipitators – operational considerations – costing of APC equipment – recent advances
UNIT IV CONTROL OF GASEOUS POLLUTANTS
Factors affecting selection of control equipment -working principle, design and performance equations of absorption, adsorption, condensation, incineration, bio-scrubbers, bio-filters –control technologies-SO2,NOx CO, H2S; process control and monitoring – operational considerations – costing of APC equipment –emerging trends
UNIT V AUTOMOBILE AND NOISE POLLUTION
Vehicular Pollution: Automobile emission- types of emissions- prevention and control of vehicular pollution.
Noise Pollution: Sources and effects of noise pollution – measurement – standards –control and preventive measures.
Indoor Air Pollution: Sources and effects –control and preventive measures
OUTCOMES:
After completion of this course, the student is expected to be able to understand:
CO1 Various types and sources of air pollution and its effects
CO2 Methods of source and ambient monitoring and dispersion of pollutants and their modeling
CO3 The principles and design of control of particulate pollutants
CO4 The principles and design of control of gaseous pollutant
CO5 Sources, effects and control of vehicular, indoor air and noise pollution
