Key words
Biochemical and chemical technology
Objectives
By resolving theoretical problems students are introduced to important technologies in the biochemical and chemical industry. Physical and chemical theoretical concepts are to be applied in a critical and practical way. “Water” serves as a common and relevant theme for demonstrating both chemical as well as biochemical processes
Topics
Introductory concepts, practical exercises on material and energy balances
Sources and composition of water
Water treatment:
- solid/liquid separation
- degassing/aeration/oxidative iron removal
- demineralisation
- ion exchange
- MF/UF/RO
- adsorption
- sterilisation
Steam and moisture
Heat transfer
Destillation/evaporator
Extraction
Prerequisites
Final objectives of “Aanvullingen Chemie” (1st year Bachelor in Industrial Sciences in Chemistry)
Final Objectives
Scientific skills (AWC 2)
To be capable of applying general scientific knowledge while resolving biochemical and chemical scientific problems.
Technical skills(ATC 1,2)
The student should be able to demonstrate logical connections between the various scientific disciplines in order to understand technical problems and processes. Additionally, he should be able to analyse and solve technical engineering problems.
Specific skils (SC 1)
The student should be able to control general chemical/biochemical knowledge and skills.
