Prerequisites
Basic knowledge of chemical thermodynamics and stoichiometry calculations, and full use of mass and energy computations.
Objectives
The students should be able to perform advanced material and energy balances in complex processes, solve mass balances in multiphasic operations, and use adequate methods to measure and analyse thermophysical and thermochemical properties.
Program
1. Termophysical and thermochemical previsiom methods;
2. Mass balances in multiphasic operations; Solid-liquid extraction: solids washing and leaching; Liquid-liquid extraction: imiscible and partially miscible systems.
3. Energy balances in processes with mixture and solution.
4. Simultaneous solving of energy and material balances; Computer design and calculation of energy and mass balances
Evaluation Methodology
Written open-book examination. A practical assignment including public presentation with minimum mark of 9/20 in each assessment component.
