Please note! Course description is confirmed for two academic years, which means that in general, e.g. Learning outcomes, assessment methods and key content stays unchanged. However, via course syllabus, it is possible to specify or change the course execution in each realization of the course, such as how the contact sessions are organized, assessment methods weighted or materials used.
LEARNING OUTCOMES
After passing the course student can:
apply the mixed potential theory to kinetic and equilibrium evaluations of leaching and corrosion systems,
design and conduct electrochemical experiments to measure reaction rates and corrosion rates and corrosion probabilities,
dimension a leaching, solution purification and recovery process based on selected aims, such as yield, selectivity or residence time,
apply the techniques of materials selection and corrosion engineering to the design of processing equipment.

Assessment Methods and Criteria
Valid 01.08.2020-31.07.2022:
Lectures
Tutorials and exercises in a computer class
Laboratory exercises
Corrosion problem-solving cases
Applies in this implementation:
Evaluation criteria is based on the evaluaton of excersises (calculations and written), laboratory work (attendance, conducting the lab work, calculations and reporting), attending the excursion and lecture tasks (given task at each lecture, written/calculational).
24% from exercises
(6*4 points)45% from laboratory
work (3*15 points) - Lab work I, II and III (completed during weeks 8-10 i.e.
18.2 - 8.3)7% from excursion
(7 points)24% from lectures
(12*2 points) - Lecture tasksCourse pass limit is half of the points i.e. 50/100 points.
