Learning outcomes of the course :
 |
| The aim of this course is to conduct a technological survey of the methods of converting waste and various effluents in the form of molecules and/or energy.
The course will be divided into three parts:
- Theory course on new technology and new use of existing technology. Revision of the concepts of physics (thermodynamics: methanogenic power, calorific value of waste) and chemistry (composition of waste) required for understanding these procedures.
- Practical course on the characterisation of waste and effluents and technology.
- Seminars with experts in this domain, field visits. |
