Courses Taught by Dr. Fanxing Li
- Carbonaceous fuels such as coal, petroleum, natural gas, and biomass are anticipated to continue to satisfy the majority of the global energy consumption within the foreseeable future. Meanwhile, fossil fuel conversions lead to emissions of carbon dioxide and other pollutants. This course aims to provide an overview of the state-of-the-art and emerging approaches for carbonaceous fuel conversion. The potential consequences of anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions are also discussed along with the existing and emerging approaches for carbon dioxide capture and utilization. General approaches to analyze these energy conversion and CO2 capture processes will also be elaborated.
CHE 205 Chemical Process Principles
- Engineering methods of treating material balances, stoichiometry, phase equilibrium calculations, thermophysics, thermochemistry and the first law of thermodynamics. Introduction to equation solving packages and spreadsheets for solving problems related to chemical engineering calculations.
