Outline (in English)

In recent years, water pollution by persistent organic compounds represented such as PFAS (perfluoroalkyl compounds) and microplastics has attracted international attention. Heavy rainfall and the depletion of fresh water due to climate change have reduced the amount of available water, and we are said to be in an era of water crisis. Humans cannot live without water, but in order for us to use safe and secure water on a daily basis, it is important not to pollute rivers and groundwater, which are the sources of water. Japan experienced enormous industrial pollution in the 1960s, as exemplified by Minamata disease, and now laws have been established to protect water quality, and pollution is being prevented through thorough compliance with the law by factories. In this course, students learn about water environment management that companies should implement to protect water quality. Specifically, students learn about laws related to water pollution control, the current status and sources of water pollution, water pollution mechanisms and health effects, water purification techniques, and water quality measurement.
The evaluation for this course is as follows: Students should perform 2 kinds of report assignments. Submission of the assignment can be worth a maximum of 20 points per assignment. If they submit the assignment reports twice, they will be worth a maximum of 40 points. The final exam is worth a maximum of 60 points. The grade will be based on the sum of the assignments and the final exam.
