General description and relevant information The course deals with modern separation technologies like those listed in contents, for instance: lixiviation, extraction fluidized beds, and so on. In the second part the course deals with Membrane technology from micro-filtration to ultra- or nano-filtration and reverse osmosis. Finally, there is an introduction to membrane synthesis and microencapsulation. On the other hand, we also included advanced modelling strategies for the design, rate and optimization of advance separation strategies in steady state (e.g., petroleum modelling, solid modelling, extractive distillation, reactive distillation, pressure swing separation, azeotropic distillation…) and the fundamental aspects associated with the design of units using dynamic modelling (e.g., CSTR, PFR…). To obtain such results AspenPlus, AspenHysys and/or SuperPro modelling tools are used.
OBSERVACIONS: Aquesta assignatura s'imparteix conjuntament amb el Màster d’Enginyeria Química (MEQ) i les competències que es mostren son d’aquest ensenyament. Els resultats d'aprenentatge són els mateixos als dos màsters, tot i que pot variar la seva codificació, pel fet de dependre de diferents competències.
