Learning Outcomes: 

The goal of this course is the familiarization of the students with the pollutants that are produced and emitted by the industry, and the corresponding removal techniques. After the completion of the course the students will be able to:

  • estimate the efficiency of each pollutant removal technique
  • select the appropriate removal method for gas or/and particle phase pollutants that are emitted by industry
  • design the appropriate application for the removal of the pollutants.
