Introduction to the Programme Syllabus

Introduction to the Programme Syllabus
Now ENSIC syllabus encompasses a large panel of disciplines, allowing the engineers to have a double
competence in Physical Chemistry and Chemical Engineering by means of an efficient, customised training
organised in semesters and following Bologna recommendations:
After a two-year program with intensive education centered on Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry, solid
scientific and technological competences are acquired in the Institute, before additional formation in
specialization courses as follows. The three-semester core curriculum i.e. Semesters 5 to 7 in ENSIC is to
provide the required general knowledge in chemical engineering, and is followed by three specialization
courses in Advanced Chemical Engineering, Product Chemical Engineering, and Engineering of
Biotechnological Processes. The three-year overall program in the Institute is completed by a five-month
internship in industry;
Foreign language is a significant concern in education in ENSIC. Courses in English language are given during
five semesters, with a minimum score of 785 on the TOEIC test. This corresponds to the compulsory
minimum level of the Chemical Engineering degree course qualification. A second foreign language is also
required. Efforts in improving engineers skill in foreign languages is to allow them easier integration into
worldwide industrial and business world, while bringing them valuable international culture.
Strong incentive is given to spend at least one semester abroad, either for lectures, laboratory research
placement, or internship in a foreign company. The programme of studies taken in other Institutes, either in
france or abroad is not given here.

CHEMICAL ENGINEERING PROJECT
CODE:
5II6PSR
SEMESTER : 6
CREDITS (ECTS) : 2
PROJECT DESCRIPTION :
Design of an industrial-scale chemical reactor on the basis of different chemical engineering disciplines (chemical kinetics, reactor
design and numerical methods).
LEARNING OBJECTIVES :
At the end of the project, the student should be able:
- to analyze a detailed kinetic mechanism and deduce the important information
- to implement an optimization strategy in order to infer the values of the unknown kinetic constants
- to construct a mathematical model of a complex industrial reactor (mass and energy balances)
- to numerically solve this model via modern simulation tools
- to analyze & criticize the simplifying hypothesis and the produced results
- to combine individual responsibilities and a collaborative spirit within a group
- to produce complete scientific reports.
The project is comprised by two main parts and is carried out by groups of 4 students:
- The first part aims to analyze a detailed kinetic mechanism and deduce stoichiometries and kinetic rate expressions. The
students create a mathematical model of the reactor which is initially checked, on the basis of pseudo experimental data
(generated by a black box software), and subsequently implemented in order to infer the rate coefficients, through the use
of numerical methods and modern simulation packages. A first report is written on this work.
- The second part aims to model and simulate an industrial reactor. The kinetic rate expressions obtained in the first step are
implemented in appropriate mass balances coupled with an energy balance. A second report is written on this work.
During the project, each group is supervised by 3 teachers specialized in Chemical Kinetics, Chemical Engineering and Numerical
Methods.

INTRODUCTION TO RHEOLOGY
CODE:
5II6OPT9
SEMESTER: 6
CREDITS (ECTS): 1
A large number of fluids used industrially or in daily life have macromolecules in their components (polymers) or are filler
dispersions (suspensions, emulsions, etc.). Because of their large structural and compound variety, their flow or deformation
behaviour varies to a great extent. This may be caused by previous treatments (physicochemical, mechanical, thermal) but also by
aging.
The behaviour of compound fluids may differ more or less from an ideal behaviour of a so-called Newtonian fluid. The aim of
rheology is thus to define the rheological-state equation (an equation that link forces exerted on surface elements to the movement
of such elements).
AIMS:
The aims of this course are to define theoretical and experimental concepts to be used to determine the rheological-state equation
of a fluid by:
 Understanding what a shear laminar flow is and its associated values (shear stress and rate);
 Identifying the various rheological behaviours generally encountered by associating them with a model;
 Presenting the numerous metrological methods used in industry
LEARNING OUTCOMES:
Knowledge of rheological behaviours is a valuable tool for engineers from the design stage of a product in the laboratory to its
manufacture. Three aspects will thus be studied:
 The vision of the process engineer who has to take the rheological behaviour of materials into account in order to be able to
dimension processes (weight loss in channelled flows, heat transfer, etc.);
 The vision of the formulating-applicating engineers who seeks to establish a relation between the structure of a material and its
rheological properties, making thus rheology a genuine QA tool;
 The vision of the manufacturer who uses on-line measurement of rheological characteristics that accurately reflect the structural
evolution of the product during manufacture.
The objective of this course is to teach students the basic concepts of rheological behaviour and to show them how to efficiently use
the acquired knowledge. The theoretical approach that will help them to accurately identify fundamental parameters will be
followed by implementation and application aspects.
1. Shear laminar flow
1.1. Case of simple shear laminar flow: definition of characteristic values (shear stress, speed, viscosity)
1.2. Extension to any shear movement (concept of tensors)
2. Qualitative classification of materials based on their rheological behaviour
2.1. Time-independent viscous fluids
2.2. Time-dependent viscous fluids
2.3. Viscoelastic fluids: the simple case of linear viscoelasticity, Weissenberg effect
3. Metrological techniques
3.1. Conventional experimental devices
3.2. Which tests for which behaviour?
3.3. Limits of use
4. Rheology for the engineer
4.1. Weight-loss calculation for rheologically complex fluids
4.2. Structure vs. properties relationship: case of polymers in all possible states from paints to cements, from creams to nail
polish
4.3. Rheology and tricks of the trade: how to get the most out of an existing material?

CREDITS (ECTS): 1
AIMS:
There has been a tremendous boom in the structural and dynamic representation of molecules and macromolecules in the tridimensional space (3D) thanks to the gradual development of the computing tools required for their study over the last four
decades. Starting from the principles of molecular mechanics and dynamics and other more general approaches, today we possess
the right methods and strategies to carry out "in silico" molecular engineering and contribute to the rational design of new
compounds with specific properties for use in the life sciences or materials sciences. Molecular and macromolecular modelling is
now systematically used in industry and research and henceforth makes a decisive contribution to our mastery of materials'
behaviour.
LEARNING OUTCOMES:
At the end of the teaching module, the student engineer will:
Have learnt all the fundamental interactions which regiment the conformational behaviour of molecules,
Be capable of forming a critical opinion on the content of force fields used in molecular mechanics,
Master the strategic aspects of a molecular dynamic approach in relation to experimental data,
Be capable of selecting the right usage of molecular modelling according to the field of application concerned.
This course will be taught using lessons involving many integrated exercises. It will not involve particular I.T. tools or languages. Its
contents will be divided into the following chapters:
(i)
(ii)
(iii)
(iv)
(v)
intramolecular and intermolecular interactions in a condensed media,
molecular mechanics and the geometric optimization of molecules,
molecular dynamics and conformational simulations based on time,
statistical approaches for macromolecules,
applications in pharmaceutical science and materials sciences.

SEMESTER : 7
CREDITS (ECTS) : 3
AIMS :
The macromolecular chemistry module aims at:
Introducing the basics of polymers
Presenting the different types of polymerization and their characteristics
Describing the different polymerization kinetics and the corresponding calculations of polymer molecular weights
LEARNING OUTCOMES :
At the end of the macromolecular chemistry module, the student should be able to:
Understand the macromolecule specifity and their main characteristics
Choose the right polymerization type to achieve a specific task
Identify the advantages and drawbacks of the different polymerization types
Make the kinetics and molecular weight calculations which are pre-requisite for dimensioning polymerization reactors
Perform simple polymerizations and have a basic knowledge about the most common polymerization processes
The macromolecular chemistry module will be structured in 4 chapters:
Chapter 1. Introduction to polymers
Chapter 2. Radical polymerization
Chapter 3. Ionic and coordination/insertion polymerizations
Chapter 4. Step-growth polymerizations
The module will involve 10 lectures of 1h30, the lecture textbook being the slides of the different presentations. The magistral
lectures will enable an active learning on the basis of the slides, industrial exemples and open questions to the audience. At the
end of each chapter, a questionnaire will be submitted to the students and it will be immediately corrected in order to enable a
learning auto-assessment of the module fundamentals.
The lectures will provide the basis for 5 tutorials of 1h30 which will take place with respect to the module advancement. These
tutorials will have to be prepared by the student who will have to know the main issues of the corresponding chapter. The first
four tutorials will propose several exercises related to the different chapters and their solving will be achieved with the help of the
academic team. The fifth tutorial will be an opportunity to reinforce the learning on the step-growth polymerizations, which are
more difficult to master, before the final exam of 1h30.
32h lab work in 4 days will complete the formation in basic macromolecular chemistry by enabling the student confrontation with
real life issues in polymerization processes. The lab work will focus on the different polymerization methods and their specificity
(emulsion polymerization, suspension, polymerization, step-growth polymerization etc.) and the main techniques used for
polymer characterization, including molecular weight determination.

Industrial Polymerization Processes
CODE:
5II7OPT7
SEMESTER: 7
CREDITS (ECTS): 2
AIMS:
The design of polymerization processes is based on a methodology derived from process engineering. However, polymers differ from
conventional products on various aspects. They are products with distributed characteristics (molar mass, chemical composition,
branching). The progression of the polymerization reaction generally causes a significant variation of the physical properties in the
reactive media (with consequences for reactor performance). Finally, application properties (especially forming) are closely linked to
the kind of distribution characteristics of macromolecules (that is also closely linked to reactor operation).
This course aims to extend the basic concepts studied in the common part of the curriculum, by mixing conferences by industrial
professionals, lectures and a visit to an industrial site.
LEARNING OUTCOMES:
At the end of this course, student should know and understand:
The principle of chain and stage polymerization process design;
The main relationships between process design and the characteristics of the polymers obtained;
Polymerization reactor operation.
The course will be divided into lectures and conferences given by industrial professionals, plus a visit to a polymer production plant.

A short history of science and technology
LEARNING OUTCOMES :
Very scarcely mentioned during post-graduate studies, history of science and technology nevertheless reveals the most
pleasant aspects of otherwise dull theories and unveils details concerning the existence of inventors who, somehow, still haunt our
everyday lives. The aim of this option is to convey a synoptic perspective of the development of some of the major scientific matters
from the origins until today.
AIMS :
This option should make students familiar with the chronological highlights of theories and technological improvements dealing
with different subjects such as chemistry, mathematics, mechanics, astronomy, optics, energy and electromagnetism.
The development of the mentioned subjects will be evoked using an illustrated Powerpoint slide show, some parts of the
programme involving special focus. A few short text studies will help discover genuine historic scientific literature. The students will
be offered the opportunity to visit the historical collections from the libraries of both Science and Technology and Medicine
campuses in Nancy. An optional journey to the Musée des Arts et Métiers in Paris, which is an institution gathering a lot of historic
scientific instruments, will take place one Saturday, allowing a more concrete perception of history of technology.

IINTRODUCTION TO CHEMICAL PRODUCT ENGINEERING
CODE : 5II8IGP
SEMESTER : 8
CREDITS (ECTS) : 4
LEARNING OUTCOMES :
The chemical industries nowadays are increasingly involved in specialty chemicals (small quantity, batch production, high added
value) as well as formulated products (complex mixtures targeted to confer specific end-use properties). In addition to process
design and optimization which are the major concerns of commodity production, the specialty and formulated product industries
face also new technical as well as marketing challenges (time to market, smart product design, choice or adaptation of generic, not
dedicated plants etc.). Moreover, in place of the classical unit operations found in commodity production (distillation, absorption,
extraction etc.), more exotic operations such as emulsification, spray cooling, extrusion, coating and granulation are relevant to
formulated product elaboration. This situation calls for an examination of the possibilities and limitations of chemical engineering
methodology within a product oriented framework. The aim of this course is to identify some of the challenges of what is termed
chemical product engineering. The distinctive features of product design (particularly in contrast to process design, a more familiar
topic for chemical engineers) are outlined.
AIMS :
- Master the concept of chemical product engineering and performance products
- Use batch operation and batch production
- Study the life cycle analysis of a product
-
The session will be composed of lecturing, conferences from industrial partners and a project
The project will consist in the analysis of various documents dealing with chemical product engineering
Different teachers and industrial lecturers will play a part of this course

SURFACE FUNCTIONALIZATION AND APPLICATIONS
5II8FSA
SEMESTER : 8
CREDITS (ECTS) : 3
AIMS :
Surface and volume properties of materials play a major role for the final application of many devices in many
applications areas. For example, in the case of a biomedical material, its mechanical properties are very important but
its biocompatibility is crucial. And this later functionality can be obtained by functionalizing the surface of this material.
Indeed many materials can present excellent mechanical, electrical or physic-chemical properties, but their
biocompatibility still lack. This set of lectures aims at introducing students to the main processes of surface
functionalization and the methods developed and used for a complete characterization of those surfaces.
LEARNING OUTCOMES :
At the end of this course, students are expected to:



Propose a method to elaborate surfaces presenting specified properties and to be able to compare and discuss
their advantages and disadvantages.

Bio-based/biodegradable products for material CODE: 5II8BBS
SEMESTER : 8
and/or biomedical applications
NAME OF THE COURSE
:
CREDITS (ECTS) : 3
AIMS :
In the last decade increasing baril price and environmental concerns have urged the development of biobased/biodegradable products and in particular that of “greener “polymeric materials. In addition the interest of
industry and academics is rapidly growing those days for their use in biomedical applications. The goal of this course is
to provide you with an introduction to bio-based and/or biodegradable polymers and the development of specific
products for biomedical applications. The most important products in the biomedical field will be presented as well as
those used in others applications with high economical impact such as cosmetic, medicine and material engineering or
fine chemicals.
LEARNING OUTCOMES :
A student who has met the objectives of the course will be able to:
 Account for the main commercial natural or bio-based polymers, their main fields of application and their
related advantages.
 Understand and debate the development procedure of pharmaceutical products from design to market.
 Participate to the design of a polymeric biomaterial and discuss its specifications.
This course will be under the form of lectures (including conferences performed by people coming from industrial or
biomedical world) and a group project. It will be divided in three main parts:
 Part 1. Biopolymers and biodegradable polymers
 Part 2. From molecule to drug design
 Part 3. Polymers for biomedical applications
In the first part main natural polymers (biopolymers) and biodegradable ones will be described. The discussion will be
limited to polymer materials which correspond to high prospect applications. Nowadays interest in biodegradable
polymers is constantly growing especially those obtained from renewable resources as they could be alternative to
polymers based from petrochemistry. Examples will include the main types of synthetic biodegradable polymers
recently produced in industry as well as their main applications in key sectors. The prospects and the industrial
challenges of these new environmentally friendly plastic materials will be finally discussed in the general frame of
sustainable development.
In the second part strategies to design new drugs will be exposed. Numerous steps and years are necessary to attain this
goal: study of the biological target, synthesis, effect of the drug on target cell and clinical assays. The presentation of
these different steps will give a basic overview of drug development in pharmaceutical industry.
Finally the interest of using polymers (especially bio-based ones) for biomedical applications will presented in the last
part. Strict specifications have to be defined for the design of new biocompatible materials for biomedical use (as
surgical device or in drug delivery). Such specifications are very depending on the aimed application and induce
numerous challenges especially in terms of biocompatibility. A general introduction of the problematic will firstly define
the concept of biomaterial thanks to a few examples. The afferent economical challenges and the main constrains
associated to the related specifications will be presented. Then a few examples of biomaterials will be detailed:
 Materials for surgery (osteosynthesis screw, endoprothesis)
 Nanomedicine (Drug delivery system, medical diagnostic…)
 Hydrogels for drug delivery, tissue repair and wound dressing
 Biomaterials for tissue engineering

QUANTITATIVE RISK EVALUATION
CODE : 5II8ERT
SEMESTER : S8
CREDITS (ECTS) : 3
AIMS :
A risk is defined by the combination of the overall probability, or frequency of occurrence of a harmful effect induced by
a hazard and the severity of that effect (European Commission Regulation 2096/2005). Risk assessment is then
performed to determine the magnitude of risk and contribute to controlling risks to an acceptable or tolerable level.
This course is aimed at presenting the analytical aspects of risk assessment, i.e. the compulsory data and mathematical
models which are necessary to the quantitative evaluation of both the probability and the severity of the effects
(thermal radiation, overpressure, toxic concentration).
LEARNING OUTCOMES :
At the end of the course, the students should achieve the following key learning outcomes:
− be able to quantify major risks, i.e. both the probability of occurrence and the severity of the various effects of an
accident (thermal radiation, overpressure and toxicity)
− be able to choose the adequate prevention and protection means as a function as the scenario
- understand the influence of major risks on crisis management and urbanism (notably on the Local Urbanism Plan)
This course is designed for future chemical engineers who will face safety and environmental issues and who wish to
develop their skills in risk assessment and sustainable development.
The course is very practical in its approach, based in case studies and giving students the opportunity to apply the
concepts, notably the quantitative risk assessment (QRA) principles, through tutorial classes, a project on QRA and
process safety and the use of specific software.
Key topics:
- Quantitative assessment of the probability of occurrence, RAMS (reliability, availability, maintainability and safety),
fault trees
- Quantitative assessment of thermal effect and overpressure (pool fire, boilover, BLEVE, etc.) and of toxic release
- Thermal runaway
- Dust explosions: hybrid mixture explosion, dusts mixtures, turbulence/combustion interactions, ignition and explosion
of nanopowders
- Mitigation and protection, vent sizing
- Urbanism and major risks
- Crisis management
- Application of a quantitative risk assessment method to emergency response planning: use of Aloha, Marplot, etc.

The industrial process design course implements an integrated learning methodology addressing an open-ended
problem, which is the design of an industrial-scale production process including the following steps: process selection,
choice of operating conditions, research of physical, chemical and technical data, overall balances, detailed sizing of
selected equipment, health and safety considerations.
Several original subjects are defined each year in collaboration with industrial partners. Students work in groups of five.
The work is divided into two parts:
- Sizing of a reactor (25% of the time) supervised by academic staff (4 h tutorials for each group); software: Matlab©
- Sizing of the industrial production process as a whole (75% of the time), supervised by industrial partners (12h
tutorials for each group); software: ProII©
The project is evaluated by an intermediate (40 minutes) and a final (60 min) viva as well as an intermediate and a final
report, written in English. The industrial partners are involved in all assessments. Linguistic quality is assessed by
specialist teachers.
A dedicated subject is given to students specializing in the pharmaceutical industry.
