Educational objectives
Understanding the mode of operation and specifications of instrumentation for measurement and control of mechanical and thermal systems. evaluate the measurement uncertainty and its main causes in applications.

Prerequisites
In order to be able to understand end apply the majority of the techniques described within the Course, you must have successfully passed the Analisi 1 e 2, Informatica, Fisica, Elettrotecnica, Fondamenti Di Meccanica delle Strutture.
Moreover, other topics matter of the module require the ability to so/ve simple integrals, differential equations, Taylor and Fourier series and to develop functions of two variables in series.
Knowledge of these techniques represents a mandatory prerequisite for students planning to follow this course with profit.

Teaching methods
The course is organized as follows:
lectures on ali subjects of the course;
Laboratory exercises

Learning verification modality
The exam consists of an oral test.
Oral test consists on an interview of about 45 minutes long aiming to ascertain the knowledge level and the understanding capability acquired by the student on theoretical and methodological contents as indicated on the program.
The oral exam will also test the student communication skill and his autonomy in the organization and exposure of the theoretical topics.

Extended program
Laboratory sessions
Pratical static and dynamic calibration of transucers for displacement, strain, accelerometers, pressure, microphone, load cells, flow rate, anemometer, termocouple, etc
Use of oscilloscope, spectrum analyser, digital data acquisition and processing system based on personal computers.

Contents Thermodynamic, physical and chemical equilibrium in complex systems.

Practical laboratory activities, in particular:

1) Production of biogas from waste of agro-industrial origin and related biogas yield;

2) Production of methane via the Sabatier reaction;

3) production of gas hydrates for the recovery and valorisation of methane and simultaneous capture of carbon dioxide ("replacement process").
Reference texts Matteo Maestri, Fundamentals of Chemical Processes, McGraw-Hill
Educational objectives To pass the course, the student must:
1) know how to define and calculate mass and energy balances of complex systems;
2) where possible, calculate the thermodynamic equilibrium of these systems;
3) in-depth knowledge of the biogas production process;
4) in-depth knowledge of the methanation process via the Sabatier reaction;
5) basic knowledge on gas hydrates and their properties.
Prerequisites Basic notions of thermodynamics and material balances.
Teaching methods Introductory theoretical lessons and practical laboratory activities.
Other information --
Learning verification modality In-depth analysis of one of the practical activities covered in the laboratory and oral test on the course topics.
Extended program Basic information on thermodynamic equilibrium, physical equilibrium and chemical equilibrium of complex systems.

Biogas from waste deriving from the agro-industrial sector. Biogas production on small-scale laboratory equipment. Experimental methods for the quantification of biogas produced per unit of volatile solids relating to the specific biomass treated. Alternative procedures to gas chromatography for the quantification of biomethane produced.

Production of methane via the Sabatier process (methanation reaction). Description of the process and study of the process through practical laboratory activity.

Laboratory production of gas hydrates with methane and/or carbon dioxide. Definition of the capacity to capture and store gas in solid form. Experimental analyzes inherent to the "replacement" process, aimed at the simultaneous recovery of methane, naturally present in natural gas hydrate deposits and carbon dioxide storage. Evaluations regarding the effective carbon neutrality of the process.
