Chemical Technology 1200-1CHMTCHW6
The lecture introduces a medical chemistry student to the issues of chemical technology in conjunction with the basic news in the field of chemical engineering and environmental protection. The lecture is intended to familiarize with the chemical technological process in terms of operations and individual processes, changing the scale, chemical and technological concept and general principles of conducting chemical technological processes carried out on a periodic or continuous basis. It introduces the concepts of technical process efficiency measures and balancing principles. It contains process engineering elements such as heat movement, industrial heat exchangers and their characteristics, industrial heating methods, mass movement, unit operations related to mass and heat movement, ideal column model, theoretical phase contact steps. Chemical engineering issues are discussed in examples of unit operations such as rectification, extraction, absorption, adsorption (adsorbents and biosorbents), filtration, ultrafiltration, osmosis, pervaporation used in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries. The lecture introduces basic knowledge about chemical reactors, their technological classification, theoretical models of reactors along with a description of their work. Issues of heterogeneous, homogeneous and enzymatic catalysis in industrial chemistry, primary and secondary raw materials for the chemical industry and their processing in the main branches of the chemical industry are discussed: organic technologies (DRW installation, pyrolysis, catalytic cracking, gasoline stabilization plant, and inorganic technologies (installation for the production of sulphuric acid, ammonia, soda). The lecture also provides information on the environmental impact of the chemical industry, taking into account the issues of hazardous waste and its minimisation, and introduces ecodesign elements and the concept of biodegradable materials with examples.
