Simulation, Optimisation and Design of Chemical Processes

Compulsory course taught in the 7th semester of the Bachelor's degree in Chemical Engineering, after the students have completed the courses in which they should have acquired the knowledge required to address this course, which are:
- Mathematical methods for chemical engineering.
- Chemical reactor design.
- Design of equipment for separation operations.
- Design of equipment for heat transfer in chemical processes.
- Control and chemical process safety.

This subject is taught in the next-to-last year, so that students have access to it after having acquired and developed skills to handle with ease numerical calculation software, and being fluent in the English language. In both aspects, we will keep on working and making progress.

Course will consist of 60 hrs of in class work and 90 hrs of independent work outside the classroom.

Course includes computer practicals.
