COURSE OUTLINE
Learning Outcomes:
The goal of the course is to provide students with sufficient knowledge about the nature, origin and destructive effect of air pollutants emitted from mobile and non-mobile sources as well as about the catalytic systems used for the removal of the emitted pollutants.
Upon successful completion of the course students will be able to select catalytic systems used for the removal of emitted pollutants and analyze and compare among the most basic catalytic technologies in order to control the emitted atmospheric pollutants.
Course Content:
1. Absorption of gaseous air pollutants
2. Adsorption of gaseous air pollutants
3. Combustion of gaseous air pollutants
4. Control of nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions
5. Control of sulfur dioxide (SO2) emissions
6. Air pollution from mobile sources (vehicles) and application of catalytic technologies for its control
7. Application of catalytic technologies to control the emission of volatile organic compounds (VOC’s)
8. Application of catalytic technologies to control the emission of carbon dioxide (CO2)
9. Control of the use and emissions of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs)
10. Modern antipollution technologies
11. Biological control of gaseous pollutants
12. Dispersion of pollutants in the atmosphere
