Learning Outcomes: After successfully completing this unit, you will be able to:
* Construct and apply material and energy balances for given chemical processes and unit operations (A2.2a) [CLO K2]
* Apply a range of modelling techniques, including first-principles approaches, empirical correlations and approximate methods to solve chemical engineering problems (A2.3a) [CLO: K2]
* Describe the principles of batch and continuous operations and indicate which is most appropriate in a given application. (A2.5a) [CLO K2]


Synopsis: Explore the diverse principles that chemical engineers need for their profession in understanding, developing, and designing efficient and sustainable industrial scale production. This includes material and energy balances, reaction engineering, separations processes, fluid flow, mass and heat transfer for a range of chemical or biochemical engineering processes.

Content:
* Mass conservation
* Energy conservation
* Reaction engineering
* Separations
* Fluid mechanics
* Heat transfer
* Thermodynamics
* Bioprocess engineering.

Skills:
* Analysis (T.F,A)
* Problem Solving (T,F,A)

Aims: This unit will introduce you to:
* the development and application methods used to carry out material and energy balances, reaction engineering, separations processes, fluid flow, mass transfer and heat transfer for a range of chemical or biochemical engineering processes
* how these subjects are integrated in process design and analysis.
