Lehrinhalte
This seminar conveys basic knowledge of applied environmental microbiology and principles that are relevant and applicable in the context of civil and environmental engineering.
The Seminar covers (i) an introduction to the basic principles of microbiology (cell structure and growth, metabolic pathways and detection methods); (ii) the role of microorganisms for humans and their interactions in the global nutrient cycles (iii) examples of microbial processes in technical systems esp. relevant for civil and environmental engineers.
Examples for such topics are:
microorganisms and energy, production of valuable products, bio-corrosion and material science, biofilms in technical systems (e.g. wastewater treatment), microorganisms and hygienic aspects
The knowledge provided in this seminar intends to help with understanding technically relevant biochemical and molecular biological aspects and specifications that can be advantageous or disadvantageous for environmental engineering systems and processes.
[b]Qualification goals:[/b]
The students should have a basic understanding of applied environmental microbiology relevant to the examples covered in class. The students are able to solve problems related to these topics.
Additionally, the students should be able to apply their fundamental knowledge to evaluate microbiological correlations (esp. within technical systems).
