Learning outcomes
|
The aim of this course is to apply the theoretical knowledge of physical chemistry to solve various chemical-engineering problems. Modern PC software (EXCEL and MAPLE) and laboratory equipment are used to complete the courses.
Students extend their knowledge obtained from general and physical chemistry. They are supposed to be able to apply the new skills to solve chemical-engeneering problems with the main focus on thermodynamics and phase behaviour of fluids.
