Department of Civil Engineering
Introduction to Environmental Engineering
ENVT 0002
Individual Assignment
(Case Study 1)
Date of submission –
26 November 2017
OBJECTIVE:
Assist students on understanding the principles of environmental engineering design (e.g. design
wastewater treatment facility). Students will learn the treatment procedures for providing safe,
dependable products of water to families, market and farming and in protecting the quality of
water in rivers, lakes, aquifers and around seaside locations. Involvement of students in the
design of environmental engineering system such as wastewater treatment engineering introduce
students to the challenging and complexity of design any environmental engineering system.
LEARNING OUTCOMES:
1. Demonstrate an understanding of principles underlying environmental engineering
design
2. Identify stakeholders and present alternative viewpoints on engineering projects
3. Take into consideration the complex, local and global, social political cultural and
ecological contexts in performing a technical role or designing an engineering system
4. Take into consideration the impact of decisions on the environment and society.
TASK:
Every student is required to prepare a conceptual design for a wastewater treatment system for a
small town or an industrial wastewater. You are required to discuss the following:
1. Types of pollutants produce
2. The treatment units and processes (flowchart)
Introduction to Environmental Engineering-ENVT 0002-FALL-17
3. The specification of the unit processes to be included in the treatment system
4. The water quality that would result from the system in term of quality, national and
international standard, social and cultural acceptance, and ecological impact.
Note: You are free to discuss a design or analysis any wastewater project of your own choosing.

Report Sections
Report Proposal [10 marks]
Your proposal should include the following:
Step 1 – Executive Summary/Introduction (approximately 1 paragraph)
The Introduction is the most important section of the proposal – it will either get your reader’s
attention or send them to the next proposal. To be effective, you want to outline the proposal and
convince the reader that your proposal should be accepted. Specifically:
A. State the problem/need that you are going to address.
B. Provide a short description of the project, including what you propose, who it will benefit.
D. Strong concluding statement.
Step 2 – Project Description (Maximum one Page)
This section defines the project objectives, describes the method of solution, and defines staffing
and administrative requirements. Include the following sections (each of these sections should
have a separate section heading and may have more than one paragraph).
1. Objectives – State your objectives as measurable outcomes of the solution. Be specific make sure your solution is achievable within a specific time frame and measurable.
2. Method – Describe the specific action items (actions that need to be taken in order to meet
the objectives). Answer the following questions: How, When, and Why.
3. Management Plan – Present “Time Plan” Only in your project.
Introduction to Environmental Engineering-ENVT 0002-FALL-17
Step 3 – Conclusion (Approximately 1 paragraph)
Review your proposal briefly. Restate what you want to do and why it’s important.
Tips:
1. Proofread! Check spelling and punctuation.
2. Be clear. Be concise.
3. Remember your goals and audience. Managers look for cost-effectiveness. Engineers
look at feasibility.
Report Structure:

(F) grade and is required to re-register the module
B. Second offence of plagiarism
a. If any student is caught second time in an act of plagiarism during his/her course
of study (in a subsequent semester), the student will directly be awarded zero for
the work in which plagiarism is detected. In such cases, the student will not be
allowed to re-submit the work.

violation in this module, the student is required to re-register the module
C. Third Offence of plagiarism
Introduction to Environmental Engineering-ENVT 0002-FALL-17

handbook.
Late Submission Policy
The recommended practice at MEC is to set the cutoff time to 23:59 on the due date for all
assessment submissions. As per the Assessment Policy at MEC, for any late submissions, a
penalty of deduction of 5% of the marks obtained for the resubmitted work will be imposed for
each working day following the last date of submission till the date of actual submission.
Assessment documents submitted beyond a period of one week after the last date of submission
will not be accepted and will be awarded a zero for that assessment. In cases where the
submission has been delayed due to extenuating circumstances, the student may be permitted to
submit the work without imposing the late submission policy stated above. The extended period
of submission will be one week from the original last date of submission. In such cases, the
student is expected to submit the supporting certificates on or before the original last date of
submission of the assessment and the decision of extension rests with faculty responsible for the
assessment .The late submission policy shall be applied if the student fails to submit the work
within one week of the original last date of submission.
Students may contact their teachers for clarification on specific details of the submission time if
required.
