Chemical and Biomolecular stream

Chemical Engineering for the Environment specialisation

Chemical Engineering for the Environment specialisation

Students in the Chemical and Biomolecular stream must complete 24 credit points to achieve this specialisation.

 

Unit of study Credit points A: Assumed knowledge P: Prerequisites
C: Corequisites N: Prohibition
Students complete 24 credit points from the following:
CHNG5006
Advanced Wastewater Engineering
6 A General knowledge of wastewater treatment and the range of technologies currently used (equivalent to CHNG5005) OR the principles of biochemical engineering and their application in engineering (equivalent to CHNG3804)
CHNG5604
Advanced Membrane Engineering
6 A The physics and electrochemistry of synthetic and cellular membranes. Knowledge of membrane manufacture, membrane separation processes and membrane characterisation and monitoring. Assumed knowledge is equivalent to CHNG5601
CHNG5005
Wastewater Engineering
6 A Knowledge of mass and energy balances, mathematics, process design, biochemical processes, and particle mechanics at a level typical of an undergraduate degree in chemical engineering. Assumed knowledge is equivalent to material covered in CHNG1103 AND CHNG2801 AND CHNG2802 AND CHNG3803 AND CHNG3804 AND CHNG3805
CHNG5601
Membrane Science
