Official Course Description
The courses Trinkwassergüte und Wasseraufbereitungstechnik I and II first teach the students the legal basics of drinking water supply as well as the basics of hydrochemistry. Based on this, various water treatment processes and their areas of application are presented.

The students are to apply and deepen the knowledge imparted in the form of an exercise accompanying the lecture. Here, the presented treatment processes are dimensioned under the specification of a certain raw water quality and throughput quantity. In addition to the contents of the lecture, the lecture notes and the DVGW rules and regulations are of particular relevance and will be worked out independently. The results and calculation methods are presented by the students.

Additional Information
Only in conjunction with Trinkwassergüte und Wasseraufbereitungstechnik I. The course contents are taught continuously in both courses.
