Course Learning Outcomes* On completion of the course, students are able to:
1. Differentiate various process operations and relevant parameters.
2. Demonstrate unit conversions in calculations of process variables
for different types of processes
3. Apply the principles of material balance to solve for unknown process
variables in single-phase, multiphase, non-reactive, and reactive
systems.
Transferable Skills Critical thinking and problem solving skills
Synopsis of Course Contents Principles of unit operations. Fundamentals of material balances – process
classification, material balance calculations, balances on multiple unit
processes, recycle and bypass, balances on reactive systems, combustion
reactions. Single phase systems – ideal gases, equations of state for
nonideal gases, compressibility factor. Multiphase systems – Gas-liquid
systems: one condensable component, multicomponent gas-liquid
systems, equilibrium between two liquid phases.
Learning Strategies (lecture, tutorial, Lectures, in-class exercises.
