Application of the concepts of chemical engineering with the principles of sustainability to the major manufacturing process technologies. Sustainable engineering consists of simultaneously optimising the environmental, social and economical impacts of a process. Process technologies include the pharmaceutical, energy, petro-chemistry, minerals, food and pulp and paper industries. After an overview of the process technologies, elements of reaction engineering, chemistry, mass and heat transfer are applied using the sustainability principles. For each of the three case studies, a conceptual map of the process industry is presented in preparation for plant visits and the design project. -- Course Website
