This course in chemistry for energy technology is one of 16 courses in the Energy Technology Series developed for an Energy Conservation-and-Use Technology curriculum. Intended for use in two-year postsecondary technical institutions to prepare technicians for employment, the courses are also useful in industry for updating employees in company-sponsored training programs. Comprised of six modules, the course is designed with a special emphasis on all aspects of chemistry as it relates to the work of an energy technician. Basic chemical information and techniques are presented. (Chemistry for Energy Technology I is available separately as CE 030 773.) Written by a technical expert and approved by industry representatives, each module contains the following elements: introduction, prerequisites, objectives, subject matter, exercises, laboratory materials, laboratory procedures (experiment section for hands-on portion), data tables (included in most basic courses to help students learn to collect or organize data), references, and glossary. Module titles are Corrosion and Electrochemistry; Metals and Ceramics; Thermodynamics and Thermochemistry; Fuels; Plastics, Adhesives, and Lubricants; and Nuclear Chemistry. (YLB)
