Annotation -
This course primarily deals with the topics of hydrobiology applications in technologies. The course provides information on directives, norms, hygienic aspects, water treatment technology and waste water treatment technology and describes them in detail. The introduction consists of basic hydrobiology and ecology terms, the history of applied hydrobiology, basic information on taxonomy and systematic summary of microorganisms. Types and biotopes of surface and underground water are also specified. Extreme biotopes, i.e. acidified and eutrophic types, are closely observed in biocenoses. Problems of the water treatment technology are described very widely in this course. Biology of waste water, problems of self-purification, index of saprobity and methods of wastewater treatment are covered in a special part of lectures. The course also covers topics of toxicity, trophic levels and their roles in water biocenoses and shows the importance of microorganisms in processes and technologies.
