Assignment Task 

There are two (2) parts to the coursework – a main essay on waste disposal, followed by a reflection on the exercises throughout the module. These must be submitted as one document via Turnitin on  Aula. Be clear and specific, keeping it as short and concise as possible. 

Coursework Components

PART 1 (2500 words, 90% of module mark)  
In a circular economy, waste would not be generated; however, we are far from reaching that goal. Currently, non-recycled municipal waste is mainly disposed of either in landfill sites or by incineration – both of these processes cause environmental impacts.

  • Assess the pathways, receptors, and effects of the relevant pollutants  from both landfill sites and incineration disposal methods 
  • Evaluate the effectiveness of the pollution control measures used to minimise the effects of the most significant pollutants released from landfill sites and incineration according to Best Available Techniques (BAT) (do not simply describe them) . 
  • Describe the waste management approach in your country and propose a waste management strategy that you consider appropriate and a better  approach (give reasons) for the improvement of waste management in your  country
  • Conclude with a reasoned opinion as to which of the two options  (landfill sites or incineration) provides the least damaging   environmental option, and evaluate their potential to contribute  towards a circular economy 

PART 2: Reflection on module exercises (500 words, 10% of module  mark) 

  • Critically reflect on your learning and development through the various exercises you have been asked to carry out during this module and how you can use this learning to improve your postgraduate skills and personal development.
  • Ensure that you critically reflect on each exercise.  A guide on reflective writing is available via the URL below: short-guide reflective-writing.pdf (hee.nhs.uk)

Submission Instructions:

Submission arrangement online via Aula: Submission links are available on the Assessment page. Formatting of submission - this should be Microsoft Word and not a PDF.

  • Critically assess source, pathways and receptors of atmospheric, water, noise, energy, waste and  terrestrial impacts of products and processes  
  • Evaluate methods to minimise these impacts and the techniques for ensuring control measures are effective.  
  • Compare prevention and control methods concerning direct and indirect, and point-source and  nonpoint source pollution  
  • Select the best available techniques to minimise environmental impact for a given process or  product 

Assignment Support and Academic Integrity

If you have any questions about this assignment, please see the Student Guidance on Coursework for more information.

Spelling, Punctuation, and Grammar:

You are expected to use effective, accurate, and appropriate language within this assessment task.

Academic Integrity:

The work you submit must be your own, or in the case of group work, that of your group. All sources of information need to be acknowledged and attributed; therefore, you must provide references for all sources of information and acknowledge any tools used in the production of your work, including Artificial Intelligence (AI). We use detection software and make routine checks for evidence of academic misconduct.

All cases of suspected academic misconduct are referred for investigation, the outcomes of which can have profound consequences for your studies. For more information on academic integrity, please visit the Academic and Research Integrity section of the Student Portal.

Support for Students with Disabilities or Additional Needs:

If you have a disability, long-term health condition, specific learning difference, mental health diagnosis or symptoms and have discussed your support needs with health and wellbeing, you may be able to access support that will help with your studies.

If you feel you may benefit from additional support, but have not disclosed a disability to the University, or have disclosed but are yet to discuss your support needs, it is important to let us know so we can provide the right support for your circumstances. Visit the Student Portal to find out more.

Unable to Submit on Time?

The University wants you to do your best. However, we know that sometimes events happen which mean that you cannot submit your assessment by the deadline or sit a scheduled exam.
