For all other bteup syllabus 6th sem chemical eng 2019-2020 you can visit BTEUP Syllabus 6th Sem Chemical Eng 2019-2020 Subjects. For all other elective subjects do refer to Electives. The detail syllabus for fertilizer technology is as follows.

Rationale:

Due to vast increase in population of the country, we need more food. To fulfil the need of food, we need vast agriculture. The production of agriculture yield mainly depends upon fertilizers. To grow more food, more fertilizer plants are coming up. A Chemical Engineering technician must know the different fertilizers used in agriculture and the processes involved in their manufacture. Hence this subject.

Learning Outcomes:

After completion of this course, the students will be able to:

• Understand applications, advantages and disadvantages of fertilizers.
• Understand various catalyst and their uses in the manufacturing of fertilizers.
• Distinguish between different fertilizers on the basis of N,P, K content.
• Understand advantages and disadvantages of mixed fertilizers.
• Understand advantages and application of bio-fertilizers.

1. Introduction (10 Periods)
