Sustainable Development Goals
Abstract/Objectives
The presence of toxic substances from both natural and human activities leads to severe and lasting environmental pollution. Acknowledging this issue, humans have dedicated substantial resources to finding environmentally friendly methods for remediation, employing physical, chemical, and biological approaches. This course will emphasize the remediation of contaminated soil, water, and natural environments due to pollutants like heavy metals, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), pentachlorophenol (PCP), and crude oil sludge. It will focus on bioremediation technologies using plants, microbiology, and other biological methods to address environmental pollution and provide students with a strong foundation in environmental remediation practices.
Results/Contributions
Through classroom instruction, this course will explain the importance of ecological restoration, the current state of technology, and future developments. Additionally, through assigned readings, research, and discussions, students will not only understand the current developments in ecological restoration but also establish a professional foundation. Furthermore, by collecting data and writing reports, students can enhance their expertise in this field. Overall, the teaching activities of this course include: classroom lectures, student data collection and readings, report writing, and oral presentations.
