Environmental

The Environmental Competition challenges teams to apply environmental engineering principles to solve a realistic water or wastewater treatment problem. Each year, a unique scenario is presented, requiring teams to design, build, and demonstrate a small-scale treatment system that meets specific water quality and performance criteria.  The goal is to promote innovation and practical problem-solving  while deepening student's understanding of environmental processes such as filtration, chemical treatment. and resource recovery. Teams are evaluated on system performance, cost, sustainability, and the clarity of their design documentation and presentation. This competition reinforces the importance of sustainable engineering solution to real-world environmental challenges.
