COURSE OBJECTIVE: The development of processes of petrochemical production involves the synthesis of science and engineering, technology, ecology and economy. For selected examples of the process to achieve the integration of engineering and technological knowledge and to train professionals for research and development of the field.
COURSE IMPLEMENTATION PROGRAM:
WEEK 1
Introduction to petrochemistry: raw materials, processes, products
WEEK 2
Natural gas: method of production and composition
WEEK 3
Processes of gas treatment
WEEK 4
Synthetic gas (syngas) production
WEEK 5
Development of process based on Fischer-Tropsch synthesis
WEEK 6
Process of ammonia production: reaction parameters
WEEK 7
Processes of ammonia production
WEEK 8
Technological improvements; an example of the application of the BAT concept
WEEK 9
Pyrolysis (steam cracking): the most important process of the petrochemical industry
WEEK 10
Products of pyrolysis: importance for the chemical and overall industry
WEEK 11
Production of aromatic hydrocarbon (BTX)
WEEK 12
Production of phenol
WEEK 13
Production of styrene
WEEK 14
Production of polystyrene
DEVELOPMENT OF GENERAL AND SPECIFIC COMPETENCIES OF STUDENTS:
The adoption and application of theoretical knowledge on the main processes of production of the most important petrochemical products; including reaction pathways and technological schemes.
SUDENTS 'TEACHING OBLIGATIONS AND THEIR PERFORMANCE:
Students are required to attend lectures. Students are required to do all the lab exercises. Students are required to access knowledge tests and colloquia (related to laboratory exercises).
TEACHING METHODS:
Lectures. Laboratory exercises (practical work in groups under the supervision of an assistant). Consultations by arrangement with students.
METHOD OF EVALUATION AND EXAMINATION:
written or oral exam
METHOD OF MONITORING THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF COURSES:
Student survey.
METHODOLOGICAL PREREQUISITES:
Organic chemistry, Physical chemistry; Chemical engineering.
COURSE LEARNING OUTCOMES:
1. asses the ways of converting fossil fuels (oil and natural gas) into chemicals and consumer materials
2. judge about petrochemical processes applying knowledge from basic (organic, physical chemistry) and other courses (thermodynamics, transfer processes)
3. select the most important process equipment appearing in petrochemical processes
4. compare technological solutions present in the petrochemical industry
5. evaluate the application of new technologies based on the acquired knowledge about today's technologies
LEARNING OUTCOMES AT THE PROGRAM LEVEL:
1. interpret advantages and drawbacks of the state-of-the art achievements in the field of chemical engineering
2. solve real chemical engineering problems by scientific approach
3. evaluate data critically in order to draw conclusions
4. evaluate the application of new and emerging technologies
5. classify knowledge from various fields methodically in order to draw systematic conclusions
6. evaluate results systematically taking into account the non-technical effects of their job
