Content
The course covers the use of energy in industrial processes and society. The principles of mass and energy balance are applied to processes taking into account thermodynamics and thermochemistry. The chemistry of metallurgical processes such as iron and steel production is covered but the main focus is on the industrial processes that are prevalent in Iceland, aluminum and silicon. Also other energy intensive processes are addressed such as cement production, mineral wool, fertilizer and synthetic fuel.The main emphasis is on the student’s ability to get an overview over various processes in terms of material and energy flow, raw materials, energy use and efficiency, environmental effects and mitigation. Also the economic background i.e. the cost, profit and market conditions are addressed. Grading is based on problem solving, individual and group projects as well as a final exam. Field trips are an integral part of the course.
