hydrodynamics, heat transfer, basics of physical chemistry, basics of separation processes, chemical unit operations 

The subject gives an overview of environmentally friendly processes and unit operations of the chemical, biochemical and food industries. It deals with widely applied and currently researched technologies as well. During the course we will focus on how the development, selection and optimisation of a novel technology are influenced by environmental aspects besides selectivity and improved yield. By new separation technologies, adding different modifiers, solvents, etc. are not favoured and toxic adducts are one by one substituted to less harmful analogues. Modelling and design aspects will be also considered and explained through detailed description and evaluation of main application examples.
