Minimizing Environmental Impact of Chemical Manufacturing Processes

EEC-9700537 Brennecke 摘要 该奖项为圣母大学、西弗吉尼亚大学和内华达州大学里诺分校提供资金，在琼·布伦内克博士的指导下，支持一个名为“最大限度地减少化学制造过程对环境的影响”的联合研究-课程开发项目。“该项目将把最近和正在进行的关于具有环境意识的化学制造过程的研究结果纳入化学和冶金工程课程。 该项目旨在培养学生对化学过程中污染物排放的影响以及减少或消除污染物的环境，生态和长期经济效益的认识。 它还将使学生积极了解正在开发的技术，以尽量减少化学制造过程对环境的影响。 这将通过让学生参与研究工作，并将研究结果纳入两个新的选修课程和将在整个化学工程课程中整合的教学模块来实现。 该项目的最终目标是培养化学工程专业人员，他们具备意识，知识和能力，以最大限度地减少他们监督的化学制造过程对环境的影响。

EEC-9700537 Brennecke Abstract The award provides funding to the University of Notre Dame, West Virginia University and the University of Nevada at Reno, under the direction of Dr. Joan Brennecke, for the support of a Combined Research-Curriculum Development project entitled, "Minimizing Environmental Impact of Chemical Manufacturing Processes." This project will incorporate the results of recent and ongoing research on environmentally conscious chemical manufacturing processes into the chemical and metallurgical engineering curricula. The project will seek to develop the students' appreciation of the impact of pollutant release from chemical processes and of the environmental, ecological and long term economic benefits of pollutant minimization or elimination. It will also equip students with an active knowledge of the technology being developed to minimize the environmental impact of chemical manufacturing processes. This will be accomplished through involving students in the research efforts and by incorporating the results of that research into two new elective courses and into instructional modules that will be integrated throughout the chemical engineering curriculum. This project's ultimate goal is to produce chemical engineering professionals who are equipped with the awareness, knowledge and ability to minimize the environmental impact of the chemical manufacturing processes that they oversee.
