Job summary
Prerequisite: CHEM 1872 with a minimum grade of C.Co-requisite: MATH 25 Students will learn about mass and energy balance for reacting and non-reacting environmental engieneering systems under steady state and unsteady state conditions. Fundamentals of momentum, heat and mass transfer as applied in air and water pollution as well as thermodynamic and phase equilibria considerations, contaminant partitioning and transport in air, surface water and groundwater, and chemical reaction kinetics will be explored. Students will be introduced to life cycle analysis, application of ideal continuously stirred tank reactor (CSTR) and plug flow reactor (PFR) concepts in environmental engineering, as well as residence time distribution (RTD) and reactor non-idealities. Students will also participate in a design project. Note: Credit cannot be counted for both ENVE 2011 and ENVT 20 Prerequisite: CHEM 1872 with a minimum grade of C.Co-requisite: MATH 25 Masters degree in Engineering or Science and/or related experience. Preference will be given to candidates who have obtained a P. Eng. or who are eligible to do so. Position is subject to final budgetary approval and may be subject to minimum enrolment. https://www.unb.ca/hr/labourrelations/index.html Applicants who are graduate students please submit the Part Time Employment Form with sections 1 and 2 completed with your application package. https://www.unb.ca/gradstudies/_assets/pdfs/part_time_empl_graduate.pdf There may be Right of First Refusal (RoFR) holders for this course.
