UNIT I	WATER TECHNOLOGY	9

Water: Sources and impurities; Significance and estimation (only mention of methods) of - turbidity, colour, pH, acidity, alkalinity, hardness, solids, chlorides, residual chlorine, sulphates, fluorides, phosphates, iron and manganese, arsenic, DO, BOD, COD, nitrogen, grease, volatile acids. Treatment of water: Zeolites process and ion exchange demineralization; Desalination of water: Reverse osmosis and Electro dialysis; Municipal water treatment: Primary treatment and Disinfection (UV, Ozonation, break-point chlorination).

UNIT II	CHEMISTRY OF CORROSION	9

Introduction: Dry or chemical corrosion, Wet or electrochemical corrosion, Mechanism of wet or electrochemical corrosion- galvanic (or bimetallic) corrosion- concentration cell corrosion- passivity- underground or soil corrosion- pitting corrosion- intergranular corrosion- water line corrosion- stress corrosion- microbiological corrosion- galvanic series- factors influencing corrosion; Uniform and localized corrosion.

UNIT III	CORROSION CONTROL METHODS	9

Corrosion control by: Material selection and design; Electrochemical protection - sacrificial anodic protection and impressed current cathodic protection; Protective coatings: Metallic coatings - hot dipping, metal cladding, anodizing, galvanizing, tinning, electroplating and electroless plating; Non- metallic inorganic coatings; Organic coatings: paints, varnishes, enamels and lacquers.

UNIT IV	NANOCHEMISTRY	9

Basics-distinction between molecules, nanomaterials and bulk materials; size-dependent properties (optical, electrical, mechanical and magnetic); Types of nanomaterials: Definition, properties and uses of – nanoparticle, nanocluster, nanorod, nanowire and nanotube. Preparation of nanomaterials: sol-gel, solvothermal, laser ablation, chemical vapour deposition, electrochemical deposition and electro spinning. Applications of nanomaterials in medicine, agriculture, energy, electronics and catalysis.

UNIT V	ENERGY SOURCES AND STORAGE DEVICES	9

Stability of nucleus: mass defect (problems), binding energy;Nuclear energy: light water nuclear power plant, breeder reactor. Solar energy conversion: Principle, working and applications of solar cells; Recent developments in solar cell materials. Wind energy; Geothermal energy;Batteries: Types of batteries, Primary battery - dry cell, Secondary battery - lead acid battery and lithium-ion- battery; Fuel cells:H2-O2 fuel cell, microbial fuel cell; Supercapacitors: Storage principle, types and examples.
