Advanced topics in separation methods including: packed column and multicomponent distillations, evaporation, advanced membrane separations, adsorption, supercritical technology, separations in environmental engineering, sedimentation and centrifugation.
The course covers:• Packed column distillation, multicomponent distillation• Evaporation• Membrane separations• Pervaporation• Adsorption processes• Liquid-liquid extraction• Air quality control• Separations in environmental engineering• Supercritical fluid technology
Students should be able to:Develop process designs for any of the separations covered with a fundamental understanding of the physical and chemical phenomena occurring.Carry out detailed design calculations for separation processes.Be able to select the appropriate technology for a particular separation and thus provides knowledge and skills needed in ENCH494 (Process Design 3) and useful to chemical and process engineering graduates.
ENCH396
Students must attend one activity from each section.
36 lectures, 1 test and 1 assignment. Physical attendance at all lectures is highly encouraged. Students who attend lectures regularly are likely to perform better in the course.
