ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERS

Environmental engineers use the principles of engineering, soil science, biology, and chemistry to develop solutions to environmental problems. They work to improve recycling, waste disposal, public health, and water and air pollution control. They also address global issues, such as unsafe drinking water, climate change, and environmental sustainability.

Duties of Environmental Engineers

Environmental engineers typically do the following:

1.Prepare, review, and update environmental investigation reports

2.Design projects that lead to environmental protection, such as water reclamation facilities or air pollution control systems

3.Obtain, update, and maintain plans, permits, and standard operating procedures

4.Provide technical support for environmental remediation projects and for legal actions

5.Analyze scientific data and do quality-control checks

6.Monitor the progress of environmental improvement programs

7.Inspect industrial and municipal facilities and programs in order to ensure compliance with environmental regulations

8.Advise corporations and government agencies about procedures for cleaning up contaminated sites

Environmental engineers conduct hazardous-waste management studies in which they evaluate the significance of a hazard and advise on treating and containing it. They also design systems for municipal and industrial water supplies and industrial wastewater treatment, and research the environmental impact of proposed construction projects. Environmental engineers in government develop regulations to prevent mishaps.

Some environmental engineers study ways to minimize the effects of acid rain, climate change, automobile emissions, and ozone depletion. They also collaborate with environmental scientists, urban and regional planners, hazardous-waste technicians, and other engineers, as well as with specialists such as experts in law and business, to address environmental problems and environmental sustainability.

WORK ENVIRONMENT

Environmental engineers work in a variety of settings because of the nature of the tasks they do:

When they are working with other engineers and with urban and regional planners, environmental engineers are likely to be in offices.

8

When they are working with businesspeople and lawyers, environmental engineers are likely to be at seminars, presenting information and answering questions.

When they are working with hazardous materials removal workers and environmental scientists, environmental engineers work at specific sites outdoors.

Licenses, Certifications, and Registrations for Careers Related to Environmental Engineers.

Chemical Engineers

Chemical engineers apply the principles of chemistry, biology, physics, and math to solve problems that involve the production or use of chemicals, fuel, drugs, food, and many other products. They design processes and equipment for large-scale manufacturing, plan and test production methods and byproducts treatment, and direct facility operations.

Civil Engineers

Civil engineers conceive, design, build, supervise, operate, construct, and maintain infrastructure projects and systems in the public and private sector, including roads, buildings, airports, tunnels, dams, bridges, and systems for water supply and sewage treatment.

Environmental Engineering Technicians

Environmental engineering technicians carry out the plans that environmental engineers develop. They test, operate, and, if necessary, modify equipment used to prevent or clean up environmental pollution. They may collect samples for testing, or they may work to mitigate sources of environmental pollution.

Environmental Scientists and Specialists

Environmental scientists and specialists use their knowledge of the natural sciences to protect the environment and human health. They may clean up polluted areas, advise policymakers, or work with industry to reduce waste.

Hydrologists

Hydrologists study how water moves across and through the Earth's crust. They use their expertise to solve problems in the areas of water quality or availability.

Natural Sciences Managers

Natural sciences managers supervise the work of scientists, including chemists, physicists, and biologists. They direct activities related to
