In this course, you will learn the principles of distillation and fractionation, catalysis and Green chemistry. Environmental issues are tackled by understanding the chemistry and application of industrial scrubbers in oil and gas chemistry. The chemistry of natural gas utilisation is introduced and you will learn to identify suitable catalysts for key petrochemical processes and describe their mode of action and identify and discuss industrial approaches to environmental protection including aspects of green chemistry.
