Balinese Environmental Sustainability (Study Program of Chemistry) (One Semester)

BACKGROUND

This course introduces how to determine the environmental condition as measured by environmental parameters, and the Balinese ways to overcome and mitigate pollution. Local communal and commercial waste treatment facilities and their theoretical aspects are also described as a conventional technique in the water pollution mitigation. Bench scale advanced contamination mitigation namely photo degradation and bioremediation using Balinese natural resources are also given along with its theoretical background.
