What is
Environmental
Engineering?
⪢ This civil engineering type is the study of
environment friendly designs, pollution and their
resolutions and sewage management.
⪢ Many engineers focus solely upon the crisis of
pollution and coming up with solutions as well
as determining new and inventive ways for
sewage management and other environmental
entities.
⪢ Environmental Engineering is
dedicated to the creation of strategies to
protect and improve the Environment. 

4
⪢ Environmental Engineering is used to
maintain the quality of water, air and
land.

5
What do
Environmental
Engineers do?

6
⪢ Environmental Engineers implement
strategies to deal with pollution, waste
management and noise levels.
⪢ They conduct case studies and then
create plans to prevent natural disasters
and pollution.
⪢ A wide scope of knowledge in
atmospheric sciences and hydrology is
needed in this field.
⪢ Environmental engineers study ways to
minimize the effects of acid rain, global
warming, automobile emissions, and
ozone depletion. 

8
⪢ Prepare, review, and update
environmental investigation reports
⪢ Design projects leading to
environmental protection, such as water
reclamation facilities, air pollution
control systems, and operations that
convert waste to energy

9
⪢ Provide technical support for
environmental remediation projects and
legal actions
⪢ Monitor progress of environmental
improvement programs

10
Major Specialties

11
1 Ecological Engineering
⪢ the design, monitoring and construction
of ecosystems
2 Fire Protection
Engineering
⪢  the application of engineering to protect
people and environments from fire and
smoke

13
3 Sanitary Engineering

 the application of engineering methods to


improve sanitation of human communities

14
4 Wastewater
“
Engineering
⪢ It primarily deals with the transportation,
treatment and management of contaminated
water. (waste water)

⪢ Waste water - also known as "sewage,"


originates from household wastes, human
and animal wastes, industrial wastewaters,
storm runoff, and groundwater infiltration.
