CHEM-E6185 - Applied Electrochemistry and Corrosion, Lecture, 10.1.2022-18.3.2022

Guest access
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.
