The research project was aiming to develop <br/>more efficient, environmentally friendly, and affordable technologies to help tackle the water crisis in the <br/>world. It focused on enhancing the water treatment in terms of the removal of complex and refractory pollutants. It involved enhancing a traditional electrochemical technology called the Electrocoagulation <br/>and combined it with Microwave technology to create a hybrid treatment system. The system showed <br/>great efficiency in removing the targeted pollutant from water. In addition, the system proved to use <br/>much less energy and provide a non-toxic sludge with less water content in compared with other <br/>treatment technologies. <br/>Liverpool John Moores University <br/>Bachelor of Engineering - BE, Civil Engineering <br/>Sep 2014 - Jun 2016 <br/>The undergraduate course covered several civil engineering subjects and modules. For instance, <br/>Structural Design & Analysis, Risk Management, Advanced Materials, River and Coastal Engineering, <br/>Infrastructures, Geotechnics and Water Engineering. In addition, the course covered CAD, Surveying, <br/>Highways and Transportation as well as Hydraulics and Engineering Mathematics. Throughout my <br/>studies, I have also taken part in a series of projects focused on developing my knowledge of several <br/>fields within civil engineering. <br/>University of Babylon <br/>Bachelor of Engineering - BE, Civil Engineering <br/>Aug 2010 - Jul 2013 <br/>The course covered varies civil engineering subjects such as Engineering Mechanics, Fluid Dynamics, <br/>Engineering Mathematics, Surveying and AutoCAD, Geotechnics, Data Analysis, Concrete, <br/>construction material, Infrastructures and other civil engineering fields. <br/>Skills <br/>Civil Engineering • Microsoft Office • AutoCAD • Water Engineering • Engineering • Infrastructure • <br/>Structural Engineering • Project Planning • Construction Safety • Autodesk Civil 3D
