Outline and Purpose of the Course Sewerage system is one of the imperative infrastructures in order to create fine and healthy life, which drains sewage and storm water, and treats domestic wastewater. This course explains the basic knowledge of sewerage system, such as roles, objectives, and significance of sewerage system, water quality management, and design & operation of the facilities from the point of construction engineering.
Course Goals ・To acquire the fundamental knowledge about sewerage system.
・To understand the role and function of each facility in sewerage system and to be able to explain and design the facility.
Schedule and Contents (1) Master plan of sewerage system[2 weeks]:
Introduction on sewerage system and course guidance. Roles and significance of sewerage system for creation of desirable water environment and management. Type of sewerage system, comprehensive basin-wide planning of sewerage systems, relationship among the sewerage-like facilities such as Jokaso and drainage facilities for agricultural communities. Engineering ethics.

(2) Sewage collection system[2 weeks]:
Lecture on the planning and design of sewage pipe, settling basin, and pumping station.

(3) Treatment technology[5 weeks]:
Lecture on the treatment type(primary treatment, secondary treatment, and complete treatment), their selection process, and basic flow of treatment. Solid-liquid separation and biological process(activated sludge process, rotating biological contactor: RBC), their treatment mechanisms and design & operational parameters.

(4) Advanced treatment[2 weeks]:
Lecture on the advanced treatment such as nutrient removal, removal of trace harmful organic compounds by ozone. Background, treatment principle, design & operation, and system configuration.

(5) Treatment and disposal of sewage sludge[1 week]:
Lecture on the final disposal of the sludge and fundamental component of the process. Direction of future treatment of sewage sludge from the view point of energy saving.

(6)New perspective of sewerage system[2 weeks]:
Special lecture by a specialist such as a public official from Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism.
Future perspective, technological trends and expansion, attitudes of governments

(7) Final examination/ Learning achievement evaluation

(8) Feedback
Evaluation Methods and Policy Evaluation will be based on the written examination.
Course Requirements Water quality engineering, hydraulics
Study outside of Class (preparation and review) Review with related literature is strongly recommended in order to understand broadly based knowledge and to obtain useful information.
