Aims

The aim of the course is to acquaint students with the basics of transfer phenomena (momentum sharing, steady and permanent energy and mass sharing) in relation to kinetic heterogeneous processes, synthesis and decomposition, or to reduce costs that can be processed in the production of materials. Acquisition of principles suitable for design and construction of technological units.
