Short Term Course on Environment Management in Process Industries At National Institute of Technology, Jalandhar

OBJECTIVES

The tremendous increase in world population needs greater requirement of resources to improve human life.
However, this in turn has resulted into a tremendous load on mother earth. Process industries are a major source of hazardous and non-hazardous pollutants. It is, therefore, important to balance the economic growth with the conservation of natural resources. Process industries need to switch over to the environmentally benign technologies. It is important to practice efficient management methods in processes for waste minimization, to develop cost effective waste treatment technologies, and to provide better working conditions to the workers in regard to health and safety. The objectives of the above course are
to bridge the gap between the academia and the industry, and to update the knowledge and skills of the technical teachers and process engineers in the current and emerging issues related to the areas of environment, health and safety.

The following topics, but not limited to, are proposed to be covered during the short term course:

* Pollution control and abatement
* Environment, health and safety laws
* Air and water quality standards
* Data acquisition and air dispersion modeling
* Novel bio-filtration methods
* Membrane assisted treatment methods
* Solid waste management
* Green and clean process technologies
* Modeling of pollution control systems
* Environment Impact assessment
* Inherently safer designs
* Process safety and risk assessment
* Security vulnerability methodologies
* Occupational safety and health
