Chemical Thermodynamics 7.5 credits

The course includes: - Basic theoretical knowledge in chemical thermodynamics, application of chemical thermodynamics and interfacial physical chemistry. - Calculation of thermodynamic equilibrium (Gibbs energy, van't Hoff isotherm, Ellingham diagram) - Calculation of activity and activity coefficient (Wagner's equation, Henrian and Raoultian standards, thermodynamic treatment of the solutions) - Thermodynamic treatments of the surface/interface (Gibbs dividing surface, Guggenheim model, Nucleation) and interfacial phenomena in the high-temperature system. - Thermodynamic treatments of the phase and phase diagram (Gibbs energy change, phase rule, etc.). - Calculations using a thermodynamic calculation software and a multiphysics simulation software (Lab activities). - Thermodynamics and sustainability (CO2 emission). The course contains the following elements: - Lectures on the advanced thermodynamics, i.e. chemical thermodynamics and thermodynamics of interface, and its application (some examples in the actual processes). - Exercises on the chemical thermodynamic calculation. - Laboratory sessions on chemical thermodynamics.
