Overview

The Department of APPLIED SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY (DiSAT) at Politecnico di Torino (Italy) focuses on all the aspects of research and education involving the fundamental principles of matter and energy, their transformation and the related engineering applications. It does so throughout a wide range of complementary disciplines: physics of condensed matter and fundamental interactions, nanotechnology, chemistry, materials science, metallurgy, chemical, physical, materials and food engineerings. Its activities span from the conception of new materials and new processes to the development of new chemical reactors and process units by both modelling and experimental tools, from the optimisation of control strategies and devices to the design of pilot and industrial-scale plants and to the related safety aspects.
