Master's programme Chemistry and Chemical Technology (CCT) 2025W |
| Learning Outcomes |
Competences |
| The students will be able to independently apply the principles of homogeneous, heterogeneous, photo-, and electrocatalysis to develop real-life, industrial processes for the large-scale manufacture of important consumer chemicals. They will be able to assess these catalytic processes with respect to their economic and ecological efficiency. Moreover, the students will be able to choose the best preparation technique for a certain heterogeneous catalyst.

| The contents of the course will enable them to
• Develop homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysts that meet the standard industrial and commercial requirements (k4, k5, k6)
• design and interpret flow charts and block diagrams for large-scale processes (k4, k5, k6)
• select the most suitable chemical reactor for the manufacture of a given product (k4, k5)
• chose the best separation technique for a homogeneous or heterogeneous catalyst (k4, k5)
• synthesize zeolite catalysts with tailored properties (k6)
