Sustainable process design

Energy and resource efficient processes are a prerequisite for a sustainable society. The efficiency of energy and material use can be achieved through optimization of existing processes in an industry, the process of integration of energy and materials between different industries, and between industry and society. This contributes to a more sustainable use of limited resources, lower production costs and reduced environmental impact. Advanced process design is the cornerstone of this work

The aim of the course is to give the student the tools needed to combine multiple unit operations in an industrial process and to study the dependence between unit operations and how the total resource is affected when key parameters are varied.

The course uses Live@Lund as a learning platform
