Introduction
Welcome to ENEN3001: Green Engineering Principles and Application. This unit aims to develop the theoretical and practical basis for green engineering, including the fundamental of green chemistry. Upon successful completion of this course, students will have developed essential knowledge and practical skills of green engineering and are able to apply the knowledge and skills to industrial ecology, the development of eco-industrial parks and sustainable development. The students will acquire good understanding of the principles and requirements related to green engineering including fundamentals of project management and are expected to communicate the findings in written and oral forms.
Lecture
1 x 5 Hours Weekly
Laboratory
