Kurzbeschreibung | Das ist ein allgemeiner Chemiekurs für 1. Semester Bachelor-Studierende des Departements Maschinenbau und Verfahrenstechnik (D-MAVT). | ||||
Lernziel | Der Kurs hat folgende Ziele: 1) Ein genaues Verständnis der Grundprinzipien der Chemie und ihrer Anwendung zu bilden. 2) Ein Verständnis der atomaren und molekularen Natur von Materie und den chemischen Reaktionen, die ihre Transformationen beschreiben, zu entwickeln. 3) Jene Bereiche zu betonen, welche für einen Ingenieurskontext am relevantesten sind. | ||||
Inhalt | Elektronische Struktur von Atomen, chemische Bindungen, Molekülgeometrie und Bindungstheorien, Gase, Thermodynamik, chemische Thermodynamik, chemische Kinetik, Gleichgewichte, Säure und Basen, Lösungen und intermolekulare Kräfte, Redox- und Elektrochemie. | ||||
Skript | Folien sind vor jeder Vorlesung erhältlich und können unter https://ilias-app2.let.ethz.ch gefunden werden. | ||||
Literatur | Diese Lehrveranstaltung basiert auf "Chemie: Die zentrale Wissenschaft " von Brown, LeMay, Bursten, Murphy and Woodward. Pearson, 12. Ausgabe (internationale Ausgabe). | ||||
529-0030-00L | Praktikum Chemie | 3 KP | 6P | N. Kobert, A. de Mello, M. H. Schroth, B. Wehrli | |
Kurzbeschreibung | Im Praktikum Chemie werden grundlegende Techniken der Laborarbeit erlernt. Die Experimente umfassen sowohl analytische als auch präparative Aufgaben. So werden z. B. Boden-und Wasserproben analysiert, ausgewählte Synthesen durchgeführt, und die Arbeit mit gasförmigen Substanzen im Labor wird vermittelt. | ||||
Lernziel | Einblick in die experimentelle Methodik der Chemie: Verhalten im Labor, Umgang mit Chemikalien. Beobachten und Beschreiben grundlegender chemischer Reaktionen. | ||||
Inhalt | Natürliche und künstliche Stoffe: Merkmale, Gruppierungen, Persistenz. Solvatation: vom Wasser bis zum Erdöl. Protonenübertragungen. Lewis-Säuren und Basen: Metallzentren und Liganden. Elektrophile C-Zentren und nukleophile Reaktanden. Mineralbildung. Redoxprozesse: Uebergangsmetallkomplexe. Gase der Atmosphäre. | ||||
Skript | Das Skript zum Praktikum und die Versuchsanleitungen werden auf einer eigenen homepage zugänglich gemacht. Die entsprechenden Informationen werden am 1. Semestertag bekanntgegeben. | ||||
Literatur | Die genaue Vorbereitung anhand des Praktikums- und des Vorlesungsskripts ist Voraussetzung für die Teilnahme am Praktikum. | ||||
529-0690-00L | ICB Seminars on Chemical and Biochemical Engineering | 1 KP | A. de Mello | ||
Kurzbeschreibung | The ICB seminar series covers the umbrella of diverse research activities encompassed within the institute, including catalysis, functional materials, polymer engineering, separations, microfluidics, process design, and systems engineering. This series was founded with the aim or promoting cross-disciplinary scientific discourse and interaction with other distinguished groups working worldwide. | ||||
Lernziel | Students are expected to attend all seminars in one academic year, and should register at the beginning of each seminar. Additionally they must deliver a two page written report at the end of the year describing the topics covered, main conclusions, and interrelationships between the different themes. | ||||

This series was founded with the aim or promoting cross-disciplinary scientific discourse and interaction with other distinguished groups working worldwide, and is targeted at individuals who have made outstanding contributions within their fields. Each year, around 7 distinguished scientists and technologists will be invited to speak on topics of current interest in Chemical and Biochemical Engineering. PhD students are particularly encouraged to attend in order to broaden their perception and enrich their scientific horizons. | ||||
529-0837-00L | Biomicrofluidic Engineering Number of participants limited to 15. Only for Chemical and Bioengineering MSc, Programme Regulations 2005. | 7 KP | 3G | A. de Mello | |
Kurzbeschreibung | Microfluidics describes the behaviour, control and manipulation of fluids that are geometrically constrained within sub-microliter environments. The use of microfluidic devices offers an opportunity to control physical and chemical processes with unrivalled precision, and in turn provides a route to performing chemistry and biology in an ultra-fast and high-efficiency manner. | ||||
Lernziel | In the course students will investigate the theoretical concepts behind microfluidic device operation, the methods of microfluidic device manufacture and the application of microfluidic architectures to important problems faced in modern day chemical and biological analysis. A design workshop will allow students to develop new microscale flow processes by appreciating the dominant physics at the microscale. The application of these basic ideas will primarily focus on biological problems and will include a treatment of diagnostic devices for use at the point-of-care, advanced functional material synthesis, DNA analysis, proteomics and cell-based assays. Lectures, assignments and the design workshop will acquaint students with the state-of-the-art in applied microfluidics. | ||||
Inhalt | Specific topics in the course include, but not limited to: 1. Theoretical Concepts Features of mass and thermal transport on the microscale Key scaling laws 2. Microfluidic Device Manufacture Conventional lithographic processing of rigid materials Soft lithographic processing of plastics and polymers Mass fabrication of polymeric devices 3. Unit operations and functional components Analytical separations (electrophoresis and chromatography) Chemical and biological synthesis Sample pre-treatment (filtration, SPE, pre-concentration) Molecular detection 4. Design Workshop Design of microfluidic architectures for PCR, distillation & mixing 5. Contemporary Applications in Biological Analysis Microarrays Cellular analyses (single cells, enzymatic assays, cell sorting) Proteomics 6. System integration Applications in radiochemistry, diagnostics and high-throughput experimentation | ||||
Skript | Lecture handouts, background literature, problem sheets and notes will be provided electronically. | ||||
