Industrial Services and Facilities

Base Knowledge

Basics of thermodynamics, fluids, heat transfer and mass/energy balances.
MS-Excel as an intermediate user.

Teaching Methodologies

– Lectures classes to present the concepts, models and procedures of the syllabus, with the support of Powerpoint.

– Problem solving classes, involving the proposal, analysis, formulation and solving of exercises to apply the contents, using MsExcel.

– Case discussion classes, with group work and extended discussion.

 

Learning Results

It is intended that students identify the main types of industrial facilities and do the basic characterization and selection of equipment and systems used in process industry. It is intended that they acquire concepts and techniques for the management of occupational safety and environmental management services. In general, it is intended to develop autonomous learning skills, applying the knowledge acquired in the resolution of specific problems and in the collection and treatment of information. Relational and communicational skills are also pursued in the presentation and discussion of the work developed.
