Course Description
At the end of this course, the student should be able to: 1. explain and analyse vapor-liquid equilibria; 2. construct vapor-liquid equilibrium curves; 3. explain and analyse distillation process; and 4. prepare material balance for single, flash and binary multistage distillation column; 5. calculate ideal equilibrium stage for binary mixtures using different methods; 6. carry out bubble and dew point calculations for multicomponent mixtures; 7. explain and analyse liquid-liquid equilibria; 8. solve problems involving single-stage liquid-liquid equilibrium extraction; 9. solve problems involving continuous multistage counter-current liquid-liquid extraction and leaching; and 10. discuss and apply the theory of crystallization in mono-and multi-systems, crystal growth, dialysis, and reverse osmosis. * It is expected that 2hrs every week should be used by the students to learn how to use software such as CHEMCAD, HYSYS for simple calculations based on the content of this course.
