General Chemistry and Physics courses

The aim of the course is to provide students with an overview of the reasons that underlie the technological evolution of a production cycle and on management approach adopted in order to ensure compliance with the production standards.

In the first part of the course the different elements constituting a chemical production cycle both hardware and software has been analyzed:
1) procedures for the management of a production cycle and methods of its verification and quality control;
2) the different aspects of the techniques of supply, storage and controlled handling raw materials, intermediate and finished products, the production and the utilization of the thermal energy analyzing specifically the use in the synthesis phases (control of reactors) and separation (evaporation and distillation) of the reaction mixtures.
The second part investigated the oil industry production cycle (the different unit operations into refinery plant for converting crude oil into various finished products. Specifically, will be studied systems that allow the transformation of the gaseous fractions (LPG) and those necessary to optimize the production of liquid fractions (gasoline, diesel, fuel oil, etc.)), and the cycles for the production of N2, O2 and Ar by cryogenic distillation, ammonia nitric acid and sulfuric acid.
