A New Recycling Course Development for Undergraduate Education at WSU

Year: 2025
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: The use of recyclable materials has been continuously rising worldwide due to the economic and technological developments.Without recycling these materials, they will get degraded or corroded, and then completely destroyed by the nature, which will be a waste of resources and huge environmental damage.In order to increase the academic and public attentions to recycling, we have developed a three credit hours recycling course "Recycling of Engineering Materials" in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Wichita State University (WSU), and taught in Spring 2008.The lectures focus on basic characterization and separation techniques of recyclable materials, recycled products, environmental concerns, as well as potential commercial applications.Throughout the lectures, students are expected to gain an understanding of recycling concepts and processing techniques.
