Brief synopsis of activity

A new planned course on sustainable separation processes and sustainability via catalysis and catalytic processes as part of a study programme on process and environmental engineering

Detailed description

These courses are under design (study programmes for process and environmental engineering) and will look at:
- Sustainable separation processes, how to increase sustainability of chemical processes via advanced separation processes
- Sustainability via catalysis and catalytic processes, catalysis as a tool for sustainability in chemical industry
The courses will also be run for undergraduate students).

Funding

University of Oulu and Graduate School in Chemical Engineering (postgraduate course)

Open to collaboration Yes
