The fundamental objective of the course is to provide the
student the technical and practical knowledge and skills for designing and developing solutions
plant engineering aimed at the production of energy that can be used for both civil and industrial purposes, also in
relation to the renewable energy sector. The expected learning outcomes are the knowledge of
theoretical and practical notions associated with the energy cycle, with the types of fossil fuels compared a
those from renewable sources with obvious references to the dynamics of environmental pollution, biomass, ai
biochemical processes of energy production (biochemical processes, especially anaerobic digestion with
upgrading of biogas and thermochemical processes, in particular the gasification process), to energy
geothermal with low enthalpy systems, solar energy (both thermal and photovoltaic), bioliquids
and biofuels, wind energy and hydroelectricity. They will also be addressed during the course
the practical tools typically needed in the implementation/identification of strategies for
integrated systems for the production of energy in the industrial sector (e.g. for industrial districts
sustainable).
Among the expected learning outcomes there are therefore the knowledge and the development of a critical sense in terms
ability to identify parameters associated with the operation of equipment and systems
mentioned above in order to optimize their functioning both in the dimensioning phase and in the activity phase
(if possible) in relation to the requests of the end user, thus developing a critical sense from the point of
technical point of view, as well as understanding the meaning of the technical terminology used in the sector
of energy plant engineering from renewable sources, in relation to technologies and processes. At the end of
Course the student will have practical and theoretical notions relating to the main types of systems for the
exploitation of renewable energy sources by strengthening the skills already developed in the degree course
three-year course and having the ability to solve problems relating to new or demanding topics
multidisciplinary approaches, however deriving from the sector under study.At the end of the course, the student will be able to communicate his conclusions clearly and unambiguously to specialist and non-specialist interlocutors operating in the renewable plant engineering sector. Furthermore, among the expected results there is the student's having developed a learning ability that allows him to explore the issues addressed independently, adapting to the needs he will encounter in the workplace.
