Course content
In our country, it is necessary to develop an efficient energy technology with reduction of negative environmental impact. In this lecture, it aims to acquire the base of the environment, the resource, and energy problems, several energy systems, and the applications. In addition, it aims to acquire the base of the separation and recovery of resources.
Purpose of class
In this class, it aims to scientific knowledge of the environment, resources and energy from the physical and chemical point of view.
Goals and objectives
  1. In this lecture, it aims to acquire the base of resource and environmental and energy problems.
  2. In this lecture, it aims to acquire about configuration and structure of new energy systems.
  3. In this lecture, it aims to acquire the separation and recover techniques for scarce and energy resources.
