COURSE OBJECTIVES:

 This subject includes the list of experiments to be conducted for characterization of water and municipal sewage. At the end of the course, the student is expected to be aware of the procedure for quantifying quality parameters for water and sewage.

LIST OF EXPERIMENTS: ANALYSIS OF WATER SAMPLE

1. Sampling and preservation methods for water and wastewater (Demonstration only)
2. Measurement of Electrical conductivity and turbidity
3. Determination of fluoride in water by spectrophotometric method /ISE
4. Determination of iron in water (Demo)
5. Determination of Sulphate in water
6. Determination of Optimum Coagulant Dosage by Jar test apparatus
7. Determination of available Chlorine in Bleaching powder and residual chlorine in water

ANALYSIS OF WASTEWATER SAMPLE

8. Estimation of suspended, volatile and fixed solids
9. Determination of Sludge Volume Index in waste water
10. Determination of Dissolved Oxygen
11. Estimation of B.O.D.
12. Estimation of C.O.D.
13. Determination of Ammonia Nitrogen in wastewater
14. Determination of coliform (Demonstration only)

TOTAL: 60 PERIODS
