Course Outcomes:
On the completion of the course students are expected to
- Understand concept and determine the theoretical stages, number of transfer units and height requirements for a gas absorption process
- Identify the suitable distillation techniques, determine the number of trays for stage wise contact and determine the height of the packed tower.
- Apply the ternary equilibrium diagram concepts to determine the number of stages required for separation of liquid-liquid extraction process.
- Describe core principles of leaching, setting up mass balances, use graphical methods to estimate the number of ideal stages in leaching operation.
- Understand the concept of adsorption techniques, various isotherms and ion exchange process and Formulate and solve mass and energy balances for unit operations such as absorption, distillation, extraction, leaching, adsorption and other separation processes.
