Lernziele

The lecture deals with electrochemical and chemical processes which are important for renewable energy storage and conversion. The lecture incorporates recent research from the Energy Innovation Center of BTU Cottbus-Senftenberg. Students acquire in-depth knowledge of thermodynamic processes, the reaction mechanisms of electro-catalysis, turbulent combustion of fuels and measurement devices to characterize surface and gas phase reactions. They are familiar with the simulation of the teached processes. Students gain in-depth knowledge of the subject area and are able to make scientifically sound judgments.
