You will be able to correctly size the flue gas treatment and purification system to minimize the environmental impact of this type of power plant and comply with the new environmental regulations and legislation thanks to TECH" 

In this postgraduate certificate in Production and Generation of Electric Energy with Conventional Thermal Techniques we will deal in depth with the operation of conventional thermal power plants, and we will go deeper into the different elements that are part of a conventional thermal power plant.

An in-depth analysis is made of the activity that takes place in conventional thermal power plants. We will also discuss in detail the start-up and shutdown process of the different equipment that is part of conventional power plants.

Likewise, the knowledge of the electric power generation equipment will be addressed together with its components and functionality. It also includes a detailed approach to the characteristics of water and the physicochemical procedure to which it must be subjected in order to obtain a quality steam in the production process, together with the negative effects that poor water treatment can have.

Special attention will be paid to the environmental impact of this type of power plant and the treatment to which the fumes produced must be subjected before being released into the atmosphere. The agenda also includes a study of the requirements to be met by steam generators and the demands to which manufacturers, boilers, users and operators are subject.

Finally, new trends in conventional power plants will be analyzed by studying biomass, urban waste and geothermal plants. 

In addition, as it is a 100% online postgraduate certificate, it provides the student with the ease of being able to take it comfortably, wherever and whenever they want. All you need is a device with internet access to take your career one step further. A modality in line with the current times with all the guarantees to position the professional in a highly demanded area in continuous change, in line with the SDGs promoted by the UN.
