GS-U2

Chemistry from Nature

learning objectives:

Students will explore the principles of Green and Sustainable Chemistry with a focus on utilizing nature as a source for chemical production. They will learn about renewable resources, fermentation processes, and the development of biopolymers, examining sustainable strategies to create valuable chemical products from natural materials.The student is expected to be able to:1. Understand and apply the principles of renewable resource utilization, including biomass conversion into bio-based products and biofuels, and evaluate their sustainability and applications ;2. Analyze and implement fermentation processes to produce chemicals from biological sources;3. Develop and evaluate biopolymers as sustainable alternatives to traditional materials.
