KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING: HE ROLE OF RAW MATERIALS AND ENERGY FOR THE CHEMICAL INDUSTRY; THE HISTORY AND EVOLUTION OF THE CHEMICAL INDUSTRY; THE RELEVANCE OF THE HISTORICAL, SOCIOECONOMIC AND GLOBAL CONTEXT IN THE BIRTH AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF CHEMICAL INDUSTRY PROCESSES. BASIC CONCEPTS OF SAFETY APPLIED TO THE OPERATION AND DESIGN OF CHEMICAL PROCESSES, HAZOP TECHNIQUES AND FAULT TREE. METHODOLOGICAL ANALYSIS OF A PROCESS TAKING INTO ACCOUNT A LARGE NUMBER OF PARAMETERS OF A DIFFERENT NATURE (ECONOMIC, TECHNICAL, ENVIRONMENTAL AND HISTORICAL). METHODS OF ANALYSIS OF CHEMICAL INDUSTRY PROCESSES BASED ON THE USE OF THE CONCEPTS OF PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL EQUILIBRIUM. CRITERIA FOR THE RATIONAL IMPLEMENTATION OF CHEMICAL PROCESSES. CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF SOME OF THE MOST IMPORTANT INDUSTRIAL PROCESSES: PRODUCTION OF SULFURIC ACID, AMMONIA, NITRIC ACID, SYNTHESIS GAS. UNDERSTANDING THE TERMINOLOGY USED IN THE INDUSTRIAL PROCESSES OF CHEMICAL ENGINEERING. UNDERSTANDING SEPARATION METHODS. CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF MORE SIGNIFICANT PROCESSES OF THE FOOD INDUSTRY: PRODUCTION OF SUGAR, AMID, EXTRACTION AND REFINING OILS AND FATS, CATALYTIC IDROGENATION OF FATS. APPLIED KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING SKILLS - ENGINEERING ANALYSIS: ABILITY TO UNDERSTAND THE SCHEMATIC DESCRIPTION OF A PARTICULAR PROCESS AND, FROM THIS, DETERMINE PRACTICALLY, THROUGH THE FORMULATION AND RESOLUTION OF MATERIAL AND ENERGY BALANCES, THE VALUES OF THE MAIN PARAMETERS OF THE PROCESS, HIGHLIGHTING THE CRITICAL POINTS IN RELATION TO THE SAFETY ISSUES. DISCRIMINATION BETWEEN DIFFERENT APPROACH METHODOLOGIES FOR THE PROPER DESIGN OF A PROCESS. KNOW HOW TO IDENTIFY THE MOST APPROPRIATE PROCESSES FOR CONVERTING RAW MATERIALS INTO PRODUCTS OF INDUSTRIAL INTEREST, AND TO OPTIMIZE THE OVERALL PROCESS TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THE CHEMICAL-PHYSICAL, TECHNOLOGICAL AND POLLUTION FACTORS. APPLIED KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING SKILLS - ENGINEERING DESIGN: ABILITY TO IDENTIFY RELEVANT PARAMETERS FOR THE CONDUCTION OF AN INDUSTRIAL CHEMICAL PRODUCTION PROCESS. ABILITY TO DETERMINE THE RISK ASSOCIATED WITH A CHEMICAL PROCESS BY APPLYING HAZOP AND FAULT TREE TECHNIQUES. CHOICE OF THE POSSIBLE OPERATING CONDITIONS FOR A CHEMICAL INDUSTRY PROCESS AND IDENTIFICATION OF OPTIMAL CONDITIONS BASED ON THERMODYNAMICS AND KINETICS EVALUATIONS. AUTONOMY OF JUDGMENT - ENGINEERING PRACTICE: AUTONOMY OF JUDGMENT AS TO THE SUCCESS OF A PARTICULAR PROCESS AND THE RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE PROCESS ACTIVITY. ABILITY TO UNDERSTAND THE PATTERNS OF AN INDUSTRIAL PROCESS AND RECOGNIZE ITS EQUIPMENT. CROSS-CAPACITIES - LEARNING ABILITIES: KNOW HOW TO APPLY THE ACQUIRED KNOWLEDGE TO DIFFERENT CONTEXTS FROM THOSE PRESENTED DURING THE COURSE, AND TO DEEPEN THE TOPICS DEALT WITH USING TEACHING MATERIAL DIFFERENT FROM THOSE ONES PROPOSED. CROSS-CAPACITIES - ABILITY TO INVESTIGATE (COMMUNICATIVE SKILLS): ABILITY TO SOLVE NUMERIC PROBLEMS IN WHICH IT IS REQUIRED TO UNDERSTAND THE TEXT AND TO TRANSLATE IT INTO THE SCHEMATIC DESCRIPTION OF A GIVEN PROCESS. ABILITY TO COMMUNICATE ON TOPICS RELATED TO THE FOUNDAMENTALS OF INDUSTRIAL CHEMISTRY PROCESSES AND SAFETY. KNOW HOW TO WORK IN A TEAM TO SOLVE TECHNICAL PROBLEMS AND EXPOSE THE SUBJECTS COVERED BY THE ORAL AND GOOD LANGUAGE SKILLS. KNOW HOW TO WORK IN TEAMS TO SOLVE TECHNICAL PROBLEMS AND ORALLY PRESENT WITH GOOD LANGUAGE PROPERTIES THE DISCUSSED TOPICS. |

ACHIEVEMENT OF THE OBJECTIVES OF THE TEACHING OF INDUSTRIAL CHEMISTRY IS CERTIFIED BY PASSING A FINAL EVALUATION EXAM. THE EXAMINATION INVOLVES AN ORAL TEST. CRITERION FOR MINIMUM THRESHOLD: SUFFICIENT KNOWLEDGE OF THE GENERAL CRITERIA FOR THE REALIZATION OF THE MAIN PROCESSES OF INORGANIC INDUSTRIAL CHEMISTRY. EVALUATION CRITERION FOR EXCELLENCE: EXTREME COMPETENCE OF THE SUBJECT, EXCELLENT LANGUAGE PROPERTIES AND UNDERSTANDING OF ILLUSTRATED METHODOLOGIES. ACHIEVEMENT OF THE OBJECTIVES OF THE TEACHING OF FOOD INDUSTRIAL CHEMISTRY IS CERTIFIED BY PASSING A FINAL EVALUATION EXAM. THEEXAMINATION CONSISTS IN AN ORAL EXAM. STUDENTS, ORGANIZED IN WORK GROUPS, ARE REQUIRED TO PREPARE A REPORT ON A AGREED TOPIC. THE REPORT IS A KIND OF STATE OF THE ART ON A TOPICAL ISSUE THAT ANALYZES HISTORICAL, OF CHEMICAL SYNTHESIS, OF PRODUCTION PROCESS, OF THE MARKET, PRODUCTION AND CONSUMPTION DATA, COSTS, REGULATIONS, AND IN PARTICULAR FOOD SAFETY. THE REPORT IS ACCOMPANIED BY A POWER POINT PRESENTATION FOR THE EXAM. THE ORLA EXAM CONSISTS IN A PRESENTATION AND A DISCUSSION OF THE REPORT.
