For this assignment, please write an essay that examines the impact of industrial and hazardous waste on human populations. You should address the following elements:

an appraisal of a minimum of two laws that aim to reduce the impacts of environmental hazards on human populations, and

a determination of the impact of toxic substances on human populations.

In your paper, limit the number of words devoted to direct quotations of references. The vast majority of your paper should be paraphrasing of sources and inclusion of your own thoughts on the laws that you present.

Your essay must be at least three pages in length. You must include a cover page and reference page, which do not count toward the minimum page requirement. You must include an introduction to your essay.

Unit 2 Assignment  

PowerPoint Presentation

Instructions

Unit II presents key attributes of solid and hazardous waste. There are laws that an environmental professional can use to determine if a waste is solid or hazardous. Key issues are addressed in the required unit resources concerning exposure to toxicity used in hazardous waste determination as well as the interplay between industry and regulators.

Now, consider this: You are an environmentalist presenting a continuing education seminar to environmental professionals, and you want to drive home several concerns on solid and hazardous waste. Create a PowerPoint presentation. Your presentation should address the following:

key attributes of solid and hazardous waste,

Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) definitions,

the role of risk assessment, and

the interplay of industry interests versus regulatory protections.

Feel free to be creative. You are allowed to utilize PowerPoint’s features to create charts, graphics, and images. The notes section for your presentation is not required.

Your PowerPoint presentation must be at least 15 slides in length and will include a title slide and reference slide (title and reference slides do not count toward the minimum slide requirement). You must use a minimum of four references, two of which must be the two articles listed under Required Unit Resources. The other two references must be peer-reviewed sources from the CSU Online Library.

Unit 3 Assignment  

Instructions

This unit has presented the regulatory environment related to industrial and hazardous wastes. The required unit resources and unit lesson presented aspects of the historical and current regulatory environment, Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) requirements, and the impact of nonuniform international environmental laws.

For this assignment, review the case study that was in the required unit resources “Hidden Externalities: The Globalization of Hazardous Waste” concerning the Colbert brothers’ hazardous waste business.

In your case study, discuss the Colbert brothers’ business and how they were able to conduct this business operation.

In addition, address the following items:

Assess the historical and current regulatory environment on this case.

Summarize RCRA requirements regarding this hazardous waste case.

Appraise the impact of nonuniform international environmental laws concerning this case.

Assess the ethical standards for the Colbert brothers and if their punishment fit their crime.

State your opinion on how the case was handled.

You do not need to write your case study in the order of the above items. Weave the items into your paper to create a flowing, readable document with smooth transitions.

Your case study must be at least three pages in length with a title page and reference page (title and reference pages do not count toward the minimum page requirement).

Besides using the source from this article in your case study, locate an additional peer-reviewed article from the CSU Online Library that centers on RCRA requirements and the current regulatory environment regarding hazardous waste. The article must be no more than five years old. Also, it may be helpful to utilize the Environmental Protection Agency websites listed under References.

Unit 4 Assignment  

Article Critique

This unit focuses on management principles related to industrial and hazardous wastes. Environmental managers face pressures to satisfy corporate financial targets and to comply with environmental regulations.

For this assignment, search an article in the CSU Online Library on pollution prevention in management decision-making. Then, write an article critique on the selected article. In your critique, ensure you complete the following:

Appraise the principles of pollution prevention in management decision-making.

Assess options for management's optimal decision-making.

Apply the concepts in the article regarding waste management, pollution prevention, and air quality to your professional career.

You can supplement your critique with information from the unit lesson and at least another source. Be sure to cite and reference all sources in APA format, including the unit lesson.

It may be helpful to review the library’s tutorial on How to Research Environmental Management Topics.

Transcript for How to Research Environmental Management Topics tutorial

In your critique, limit the number of words devoted to direct quotations of references. The vast majority of your critique should be paraphrasing of sources and inclusion of your own thoughts on the concepts that you present.

Your article critique must be at least two full pages in length (not counting the title page and references page). Adhere to APA Style when constructing this assignment, including in-text citations and references for all sources that are used. Please note that no abstract is needed.

Unit 6 Assignment  

PowerPoint Presentation

Instructions

This unit has assessed engineering principles applicable to industrial and hazardous waste management. Steps were evaluated for an adsorption system design using engineering principles and presenting engineering calculations for waste treatment.

The steps in the lesson were accomplished by the required reading of an article describing laboratory adsorption tests for lead and zinc removal. The lesson used the article's data combined with engineering principles to design a prototype lead treatment system, and a required article presented a novel method for reducing leather tanning waste.

For this assignment, prepare a PowerPoint presentation that assesses engineering principles applicable to industrial and hazardous waste management by evaluating steps for an adsorption system design using engineering principles and presenting engineering calculations for waste treatment.

Specifically address the following items in your PowerPoint presentation.

§  Provide a title and introduction.

§  Summarize the Durga, Ramesh, Rose, and Muralidharan Required Unit Resources article.

§  List the steps required for design of a prototype adsorption system.

§  From Required Unit Resources, use the Yusuff and Olateju article's equation (7) for the Radke-Prausnitz isotherm to evaluate qe for a Ce lead concentration of 10 mg/L. Show your calculation.

§  Explain how your value of qe determined from the equation compares to the value in Yusuff and Olateju’s article exhibit 10a. Do you think there is an error in the equation? Explain.

§  In the unit lesson, if the prototype's wastewater flow is 500 gpd instead of 100 gpd and the influent lead concentration is still 10 mg/L, what would be the lead inflow rate in units of grams per day? Show your calculation.

§  Provide a summary of your PowerPoint information.

Your PowerPoint presentation must be at least 15 slides in length with a title slide and reference slide (title and reference slides do not count toward the minimum slide count). You should utilize at least the two Required Unit Resources: the Durga et al. and the Yusuff and Olateju articles. Ensure you refer to the unit lesson as you are creating your PowerPoint presentation.

Please adhere to APA Style when creating citations and references for this assignment. Do not include slide notes in your presentation. Be sure to use fonts that are large enough to view from a distance. This includes any fonts within images that you use. Be sure to cite and reference all information and images.
