Environmental Engineering and Reactor Technology, Specialization Project

The course is offered as an independent project work within topics such as reactor technology, membranes, CO2-capture, gas purification, crystallization and particle design, optimization and process design, and thermodynamics. The project will be connected to ongoing research activities in the Environmental Engineering and Reactor Technology Group, or in cooperation with external research institutes and industry. The project work will include definition and limitation of the work to be performed, literature search, time schedule for the project, experimental work or computer-based calculations, and interpretation and reporting of results.

The aim is to give the student a broad understanding and a in depth knowledge within the field. It should also provide excercise in independent planning of projects, oral presentations, report writing and a systematic handling of field related information.

The laboratory or project work may be done individually or in small groups and normally with weekly meetings with their tutor. The project includes an oral presentation that represents 10 % of the grade on the project.
