Open to the community, the short course was carried out in a hybrid way, through the Google Meet platform, with the participation of students from the Program, from the Chemical Engineering course and educational institutions from abroad.

The student of the Graduate Program in Environmental Technology, Ellen Francine Rodrigues, says that the discussion of the subject is of great relevance for any professional, engineers or in the environmental area. "It's an extremely important topic, a multidisciplinary area, especially nowadays when we think about developing new processes that don't have so many environmental impacts", she points out.
