Advanced Chemical Engineering Design Practice Final Year Design - CENG97006
Aims
The Design Project has the objective of giving students experience of advanced design practice by carrying out a complex design task in as realistic a way as possible. The desired learning outcomes include producing a comprehensive design in response to an open-ended brief, while working in a large team, under realistic time pressure and on the basis of limited information.
The main aims of the Design Project are to help students:
• develop skills in complex design problem-solving including technical, safety, environmental and economic aspects
• develop skills in the effective management of work and decision making in large groups
• develop skills in the presentation (oral and written) of complex techno-economic results

Carbon Capture and Clean Fossil Fuels - CENG97029
Aims
Students taking this course will be able:
• To understand how the environmental impacts of fossil fuels in general can be minimised
• To understand how syngas can be generated and used
• To understand issues relating to industrial CCS
• Understand how a range of technologies, including more advanced power cycles can minimise the costs of CO2 avoidance
• To understand CO2 capture from a range of processes, including how efficiency drops for power stations are calculated
• To understand CO2 storage
• To consider issues of media reporting of CCS
• To understand the wider picture of energy production
