Integrating Environmental Management in Chemical Engineering Education by Introducing an Environmental Management System in the Student’s Laboratory
Abstract
In this work we show how specific challenges related to sustainable development can be integrated into chemical engineering education by introducing an environmental management system in the laboratory where the students perform their experimental lessons. It is shown how the system has been developed and implemented in the laboratory, what role the students have played, the main problems found in the implementation and in the ongoing maintenance as well as how the problems have been solved.
