Biomass refiningLaajuus (5 cr)

Code: BI00CX98

Credits

5 op

Objective

You recognize the main concepts of biorefineries using different biofeedstocks and the role of them in increasing renewable energy production and preventing climate change. You recognize the foremost important biomass refinery processes and process steps; gasification, pyrolysis, digestion, Fischer Tropsch, hydrogen treatment, fermentation etc. You especially recognize the process chains converting forest- and lignosellulosic-based biomass to biofuels.
You understand the potential and targets of future biorefineries related to developing new bioproducts, such as biofibrils, -chemicals, -plastics and composites.

Content

What kind of biofuels can be produced of biofeedstocks? What are the differences between fossil and bio products?
What are the process steps in biorefineries? What are the main process parameters and chemical reactions and changes?
What kinds of byproducts can be generated in the refineries of forest industry integrates? What are the properties of the byproducts?

Yksilölliset oppimisväylät

Työviikkopohjaisessa väylässä
Ilmoittautuessasi tälle opintojakson toteutukselle osallistut työjärjestyksen mukaiseen opetukseen ja ohjaukseen. Opiskelusi rytmittyy työjärjestyksen mukaisten ryhmätapaamisten ja itsenäisesti tehtävien oppimistehtävien mukaan.


Työhön integroidussa väylässä
Työhön integroitu oppimisväylä on mahdollinen, jos voit työtehtävissäsi kehittää opintojakson tavoitteissa ja sisällöissä mainittua osaamista. Ota opintojakson opettajaan yhteyttä hyvissä ajoin ennen opintojakson alkua sen määrittämiseksi
• onko työhön integroitu oppimisväylä omassa työtehtävässäsi mahdollinen.
• millaisia näyttöjä osaamisestasi sinun on mahdollista antaa.
• mitä opintojakson osia sinun tulee mahdollisesti lisäksi suorittaa opetukseen osallistuen.

Opintoja nopeuttavana vaihtoehtona
- voit esimerkiksi ilmoittautua aikaisemmin opintonsa aloittaneelle ryhmälle tarjottavalle vastaavalle toteutukselle.
