Module objectives/intended learning outcomesAfter actively participating in the course, students are able to explain the production process of industrial gas, ammonia, and nitric acid through independent/group assignments in the context of pollution cases and efforts to overcome themAfter actively participating in the course, students can explain the chemical industrial production process of sulfuric acid, inorganic fertilizers, and chlor-alkali synthesis through independent/group assignments in the context of pollution cases and efforts to overcome them.After actively participating in the course, students can explain the chemical manufacturing process of cement and analyze the cases of handling inorganic industrial waste through independent/group assignments in the context of pollution cases and efforts to overcome them.
ContentThis course explores the comprehension and understanding of the applications of industrial inorganic chemistry, focusing on the relationship between chemical concepts and the realistic applications in industry. The focus of discussion includes industrial gases that are widely produced and used in industry (H2, N2, O2, noble gases, and CO2). Continued with the nitric and sulfuric acid industry, fertilizer industry, chlor-alkali industry, and cement industry. Potential chemical pollution and solutions to chemical waste handling
