Corso di laurea magistrale in Chimica Industriale

At the end of the course, students must be able to distinguish between benefits and disadvantages of industrial fermentation processes with respect to the respective chemical processes of synthesis and know how to choose between fermentation processes and chemical processes to be undertaken to obtain new products. Additionally, at the end of the study the students will have to understand how you can get a formulation that meets the selected requirements through a quantitative approach.

Biotechnology industry:
Kinetics of fermentation, biomass and yield in products, continuous,
discontinuous, semi-continuous industrial processes. Design of bioreactors
Formulation chemistry:
Introduction to chemometrics. Experimental design: factorial designs. The
chemistry of the formulations. The multivariate methods in chemical
formulations. Application of multivariate designs and mixed designs.
Examples of formulation in the pharmaceutical, food, cosmetic and
detergent.
Computer tutorials
Laboratory: development of a formulation; improvement of the properties
of formulated by chemometrics; evaluation of the quality of the product

The material presented and discussed in class is available on the website
