1. Water supply and water disposal of industrial enterprises
When designing water supply and water disposal systems for industrial enterprises, it is necessary to take into account the composition and properties of industrial wastewater, water discharge standards per unit of production, conditions for discharging industrial wastewater into the city sewage system and water bodies, the necessary degree of wastewater treatment, and the water consumption and discharge regime. As part of the course, higher education students will familiarize themselves with government resolutions and regulatory documents on wastewater treatment; the composition and properties of industrial wastewater; learn to choose methods of wastewater treatment depending on the required degree of purification and concentration of pollutants; study the requirements for the quality of water used by different types of consumers at industrial enterprises; explore possibilities for saving water resources; learn how to prepare technological schemes for water supply and water disposal for a separate industrial enterprise or a complex of enterprises; and identify criteria for evaluating and selecting the most rational water balance scheme for a separate industrial enterprise or a complex of enterprises.

2. Purification of industrial wastewater
Industrial wastewater treatment is a complex of engineering networks and facilities that are used to remove wastewater from the territory of an industrial enterprise, as well as facilities for preliminary treatment of wastewater and removal of valuable substances from it. When designing treatment facilities, it is necessary to take into account the composition and properties of industrial wastewater, norms of wastewater discharge per unit of production, conditions for discharging industrial wastewater into the city sewage system and reservoirs, as well as the required degree of treatment. The discipline explores industrial wastewater from the point of view of their composition, properties, methods of treatment, and disposal. Within the framework of studying the course, students will become familiar with government decrees and regulatory documents in the field of wastewater treatment, the composition and properties of industrial wastewater, methods of wastewater treatment depending on the required degree of treatment and concentration of pollutants, methods and facilities for wastewater treatment and processing of their sediment, technological indicators of the operation of facilities, and the possibility of their adjustment, and will carry out techno-economic justifications for the adopted technological decisions.
