Happy Saturday! I hope all of you are staying well.  We now have less than one month left of classes! On Monday we will take a break from regular lecture and do a group activity.  As such, Monday's lecture will not be recorded. On Wednesday we will start a unit on ion exchange. Following that we'll look briefly at absorption and then membrane processes. We'll finish with residual management. Now here is a photo from the absolute coolest plant I've ever toured. The Henriksdal Wastewater Treatment Plant is in Stockholm, Sweden and it is build within a mountain. Yes, totally carved out into a mountain. The workers use bicycles to get around the tunnels (which are about 9 km long). Just a few reminders for the next two weeks: Sunday 11/15: Participation Question is due at 11:59 pm Monday 11/16: Office hours 4-5 pm (I added a link to the Zoom meeting in the main folder on LON-CAPA). Tuesday 11/17 10:30-11:30 am : Danielle Yoon, Fishbeck Engineers: Financing Water and Was...

Happy Sunday, Well we don't have a blue sky today, but at least it isn't raining (now)! As we move into several units (sedimentation and granular media filtration) that are based on fluid mechanics, I thought I'd give you this bit of information I gleaned this morning from colleagues on Twitter and how prairie dog burrows are better ventilated than most classrooms . Wind-induced ventilation of the burrow of the prairie-dog, Cynomys ludovicianus From: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/BF00694136 We will continue the unit on sedimentation this week. I posted a handout in the Lecture (powerpoint) folder on LON-CAPA. We'll work through this problem either Monday or Wednesday. On Tuesday, Paul Larios, MSU CEE alum will speak to us during the tutorial.  We'll start his lecture at 10:30 am.  He will speak about Water Resources Engineering in the Hudson Valley, NY. and will discuss four recent WTP/WWTP jobs he has worked on. Two involve the use of NYC water supply...
