Informations générales sur le cours

Umbrella lecture giving an Introduction to Green Process Engineering

Contenu

Contenu du cours

The MOOC contains of four topics namely Terms and Conditions, Sub-systems of the bioeconomy, Transition pathways and technologies and Examples. For each of the four topics, there are between four and six videos available that describe the topic more in detail ad additional information is provided.

The goal of the course is to give an overview of terms used when circular economy, circular bioeconomy, or circular economy of water are contained. The subsystems of the bioeconomy including wood based, plant based or marine economy or described. Then, the transition pathways defined by the European commission and relevant measures to achieve zero emission in 2050 are summarizes before giving some relevant industry examples.

Objectifs du cours

After the course students are able to:

  • describe the different subsystems of a bioeconomy and give relevant examples
  • explain the most relevant ecosystems in the European union and what a transition pathway is
  • give relevant measures for the most relevant industry sectors
  • give some examples to achieve net zero in relevant industrial ecosystems

Procédure du cours

The course consists of four parts, that shall be done consecutively.

Part one: Terms and conditions consists of six videos and elaborates on definitions that are used to ensure all students know the technical wordings and definitions
Part two: Sub-systems of the bioeconomy contains of six videos and summarizes what the basic materials for a bioeconomy are
Part three: Transition pathways and technologies consists of seven videos which summarize the transition pathways of relevant industrial ecosystems such as the textile industry and also measures that are needed to achieve goals set in the European climate law.
Part four: Examples consists of four videos and gives best practice examples how net-zero can be achieved, e.g. in the pulp and paper industry.
