Paper Abstract:      Identification and application of technologies for sustainable, integrated water treatment in industry requires a holistic approach – a system approach. This includes understanding the environmental situation of the actual industry, the process and the characteristics of and specifications for the quality of the water. This off course must be combined with an understanding of the characteristics and economy of the different treatment options. Looking at this challenge as a system analysis has proven to be a useful approach to solve such equations. Much information is already available in the industries if you know how to ask and combine the data. This approach is applied in a master course called ‘Industrial Water Technology’ at the Faculty of Engineering at University of Southern Denmark from 2010 and onwards. The use of real life cases - where the solution is not known beforehand - gives the student ownership to the cases and makes them provide excellent results. This paper describes the approach and provides examples of the approach and concludes on the outcome for industries and students.
