Workload:
Workload of student for successfully completing the course. Each ECTS credit represents 30 working hours. These are the combined effort of face-to-face time, post-processing the subject of the lecture, exercises and preparation for the exam.

The total workload is distributed on the semester (01.04.-30.09. during the summer term, 01.10.-31.03. during the winter term).
60 class hours (= 45 clock hours) over a 15-week period.
The total student study time is 180 hours (equivalent to 6 ECTS credits).
There are therefore 135 hours available for class preparation and follow-up work and exam preparation.
Recommended prerequisites (modules):
None.
Recommended as prerequisite for:
Module coordinator:
Prof. Dr.-Ing. Joachim Dettmar
Lecturer:
Prof. Dr.-Ing. Joachim Dettmar
Dipl.-Ing. Ralf Hasselbach

Learning outcomes:
After successfully completing this module, students will:
_ be able to recognize and understand the biological, physical, chemical and process-technical interrelations of different kinds of wastewater treatment, based on the lectures Wastewater Treatment II and III.
_ be able to apply this knowledge to non-standardized areas that are not described in regulations and thus, where necessary, develop solutions that go beyond the generally accepted rules of technology, in interdisciplinary project groups.
_ have acquired the skills to apply scientific methods and scientific findings to solve new problems and work on practice-oriented tasks.
