CHEG 5300 - Renewable Bioresource for Chemicals & Nanomaterials


This course overviews basic science, technology, and chemical engineering concepts associated with conversion of renewable resources (e.g., biomass) to chemicals, biofuels, and nanomaterials. It will provide an exhaustive review of biomass composition, structure, functionality, and chemistry, elucidate biochemicals and thermochemical conversion processes for chemicals and biofuels preparation, unit operations, bioproducts, nanomaterials, nanomaterials processing techniques, preparation and engage the students to dialogue the applications of nanofibers and nanocomposites in light of well-established chemical engineering constructs.

Note: Open to upper-level undergraduate and graduate students.

Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisites: CHEG 2960 and CHEM 3750

Credits: 3 hours
