2. Pre-Requisites
Not established
3. Justification in the curriculum, relation to other subjects and to the profession

This subject is taught the second semester of the fourth year of the Degree in Chemical Engineering. At this moment the student knows in depth the most relevant operations and processes of the chemical industry and it is now intended that he can analyze them and optimize them from the energy point of view. Likewise, it is intended to deepen the knowledge of renewable energy sources, to be able to provide different solutions to improve the energy efficiency of industrial
