| Outline and Purpose of the Course | Much energy and resources are consumed to maintain various activities in urban city. As the result, various environmental loads such as exhaust gas, wastewater and waste generate and should be reduced to levels natural environment can accept .To establish sustainable urban metabolism, concept, elements, control, optimization and management of urban metabolism are explained. | |||
| Course Goals | To understand technological measures by learning about current trend and issue of urban metabolism and related engineering principles. | |||
| Schedule and Contents |
Class 1:Introduction (Takaoka) Concept of urban metabolism and its system are explained. Class 2-10: Elements of urban metabolic system (Takaoka: 7, Oshita: 3) Planning and selection of urban metabolic system, Transportation & collection, Engineering principles on Recycling, Thermal recovery, Engineering principles on flue gas treatment and Landfill management are explained.
