KIM 1243 Chemical Thermodynamics             
2(2-0)
Prerequisite: –
This course discusses the laws of gas and thermodynamics, which can be used as a quantitative measure of the degree of tendency of materials’ physical/chemical transformation process. The degree of spontaneity/nonspontaneity of physical/chemical transformations of materials can be measured using the quantities of internal energy, enthalpy, entropy, and free energy. The advantage of thermodynamic studies is their ability to predict a process to be studied by relating it to existing process data using interrelated standard state rules. Applying thermodynamic concepts will be very helpful in supporting the success of synthesis (material transformation) and/or separation without using a trial-and-error approach. Simulating the conversion of process variables such as temperature and pressure in the direction that produces thermodynamically spontaneous reactions will help the research succeed without having to conduct repeated experiments. To get to that stage, a fundamental and comprehensive understanding of the laws of thermodynamics is needed, which is the topic of discussion in this course.

This capstone includes lectures and practitioners and their implementation in the environmental field. Lectures explain environmental chemistry concepts, including atmospheric, aquatic, and soil chemistry; the presence of chemical substances in the environment, including sources, reactions, and transport processes, and the impact of their existence in the environment; waste and waste management; and the concept of green chemistry in realizing sustainable development. This capstone is delivered interactively through small group discussions, followed by teamwork to develop a concept/program/action package that can be applied directly in industry and society.

KIM 1494 Final Project
6(0-6)
Prerequisite: Seminar
Student final projects can be done through research and non-research routes. The final project of the thesis track is completed through research activities that can be carried out inside and outside IPB. The final project of the non-thesis path can be completed through competency-certified student internships or by conducting small projects inside and outside IPB whose credit load and implementation time are the same as the final project of the thesis path. Students carry out their final project under the guidance of a maximum of 3 supervisors.
