Environmental Engineering
Environmental engineering is the development of processes and infrastructure for
the supply of water, the disposal of waste, and the control of pollution of all kinds. These
endeavours protect public health by preventing disease transmission, and they preserve the quality
of the environment by averting the contamination and degradation of air, water, and land
resources. Environmental engineering is a field of broad scope that draws on such disciplines as
chemistry,ecology,geology,hydraulics, hydrology, microbiology,economics, and mathematics. It
was called sanitary engineering until the mid-1960s, when the more accurate name environmental
engineering was adopted.
Projects in environmental engineering involve the treatment and distribution of drinking
water (see water supply system); the collection, treatment, and disposal of wastewater
(see wastewater treatment); the control of air pollution and noise pollution; municipal solid-waste
management and hazardous-waste management; the cleanup of hazardous-waste sites; and the
preparation of environmental assessments, audits, and impact studies. Environmental engineering
functions include applied research and teaching.
The education of environmental engineers usually involves graduate-level course work,
though some colleges and universities allow undergraduates to specialize or take elective courses
in the environmental field. In the public sector, environmental engineers are employed by national
and regional environmental agencies, local health departments, and municipal engineering
and public works departments.

Teknik Lingkungan
Teknik lingkungan adalah pengembangan proses dan infrastruktur untuk penyediaan
air, pembuangan limbah, dan pengendalian polusi dari segala jenis. Upaya ini melindungi
kesehatan masyarakat dengan mencegah penularan penyakit, dan mereka menjaga kualitas
lingkungan dengan mencegah kontaminasi dan degradasi sumber daya udara, air, dan
tanah. Teknik lingkungan adalah bidang lingkup luas yang mengacu pada disiplin ilmu
seperti kimia, ekologi, geologi, hidrolika, hidrologi, mikrobiologi, ekonomi, dan
matematika. Teknik lingkungan disebut teknik sanitasi sampai pertengahan 1960-an, ketika
nama teknik lingkungan yang lebih akurat diadopsi.
Proyek-proyek dalam rekayasa lingkungan melibatkan pengolahan dan distribusi air
minum (lihat sistem pasokan air); pengumpulan, pengolahan, dan pembuangan air limbah
(lihat pengolahan air limbah); pengendalian polusi udara dan polusi suara; pengelolaan
limbah padat kota dan pengelolaan limbah berbahaya; pembersihan situs limbah berbahaya;
dan persiapan penilaian lingkungan, audit, dan studi dampak. Fungsi-fungsi teknik
lingkungan meliputi penelitian dan pengajaran terapan.
Pendidikan insinyur lingkungan biasanya melibatkan pekerjaan kursus tingkat
pascasarjana, meskipun beberapa perguruan tinggi dan universitas memungkinkan sarjana
untuk mengambil spesialisasi atau mengambil kursus elektif di bidang lingkungan. Di
sektor publik, insinyur lingkungan dipekerjakan oleh lembaga lingkungan nasional dan
regional, departemen kesehatan setempat, dan departemen teknik kota dan pekerjaan
umum.
