About PurdueX: Modern Biotechnologies for Wastewater Treatment
Modern biotechnologies have been widely used in clinical diagnosis, food production, and the pharmaceutical industry. Their applications in wastewater treatment have greatly improved the accuracy and efficiency of characterizing biological systems in biological wastewater treatment plants and the natural environment.
This course is designed for graduate students and working professionals who would like to learn modern biotechnologies in wastewater treatment and how to apply these biotechnologies to understand, characterize, and optimize wastewater treatment systems and plants. At the end of the course, students are expected to understand modern biotechnologies and their applications in wastewater treatment, select appropriate biotechniques to understand, characterize, and optimize wastewater treatment systems, and assess public health risks associated with antibiotic resistant bacteria and viruses in wastewater.
What You Will Learn?
- fundamentals of microbiology.
- stoichiometry and microbial metabolism.
- membrane treatment systems and biofouling .
- molecular microbiology tools.
- antibiotic resistance .
- viruses.
