Study Guide

Learning outcomes

The student is able to
- to know the factors that effects on the material, energy and resource efficiency of sustainable process engineering
- to know the principles of the process engineering and product design tools taken the sustainability aspects into account ( e.g. life cycle assessment (LCA) approach)
- to use on a general level CAD/Solid Works programmes

Contents

During this course you will learn basics of sustainable process engineering and basics of 3D-modelling. These topics are divided into two sections:

-Basics of 3D-modelling, lecturer Mikko Ruotsalainen

-Basics of sustainable process engineering (LCA and material/resource efficiency), lecturer Paul Carroll

Learning outcomes of this course are:

The student is able to
- to know the factors that effects on the material, energy and resource efficiency of sustainable process engineering
