Technical chemistry 3

Education facts

Code: 5KE210

This course provides you with the knowledge to develop technologies in the field of chemistry that conserve resources, reduce environmental impact, and promote sustainability. You will explore key areas in advanced chemistry that are crucial for a sustainable future. You will learn about important components for designing resource-efficient chemical processes through chemical (mainly heterogeneous) catalysis and new electrochemical methods for chemical production, as well as developing cleaner industrial processes to reduce emissions with heterogeneous catalysis and "green" process design. You will investigate greener alternatives to traditional solvents with neoteric solvents and how large-scale industrial chemical production can be made more sustainable. Based on the concepts of green chemistry and sustainable development, you will gain knowledge on how natural resources are used responsibly in a sustainable manner, ultimately creating efficient processes with minimal environmental impact through process intensification.
