Course Description
Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2023-2024. Courses of Study 2024-2025 is scheduled to publish mid-June.
This course covers chemical principles relevant to the understanding, design, and control of chemical processes in natural and engineered systems. Topics include chemical thermodynamics, acid-base equilibria, mineral precipitation/dissolution, trace element speciation, redox reactions, and reactions at the solid-solution interface. This course focuses on the mathematical description of chemical equilibria and the development of numerical, graphical, and computational solutions to these problems. Students will learn to use chemical equilibrium modeling software to describe and predict chemical speciation in complex waters. Applications of aquatic chemical principles to topics including lead in drinking water systems, arsenic mobility in agricultural soils, and geologic CO2 sequestration are discussed.
When Offered Fall.
Prerequisites/Corequisites Prerequisite: CHEM 2090 or equivalent for undergraduates.
Outcomes
- Formulate systems of equations to describe aquatic chemical systems using engineering and chemistry principles including mass balance and chemical equilibrium concepts.
