CHEM 665 Fuels & Alternative Energy Sources
This course provides an overview of the role of energy within the sustainable development paradigm. Following an introduction to the energy sector and sustainability indicators, the course divides into two main areas. The first area considers conventional (fossil) fuels along with methodologies, such as carbon capture and sequestration, to reduce environmental impacts associated with their use. In the second area the potential for various alternative energy technologies is presented within a sustainability context.
