Rationale:

The subject gives the students the knowledge of working of individual mechanical operations and handling of solids and their significance in chemical industries. With this information, students will be able to control the operation of equipment and regulate production.

Learning Outcomes:

After undergoing this course, the students will be able to:

• Understand different properties of particulate solids and carry out their analysis.
• Select specific size reduction equipment based on their final application in various chemical industries like paint, pharmaceuticals etc.
• Utilize theoretical knowledge for fundamental design of suitable solid- liquid separation operation.
• Identify technical errors that influence the productivity.

1. Concepts and role of unit operation in process industries (02 periods)

Instructional Strategy:

Mechanical operations has significant importance in the area of chemical engineering. Adequate competency needs to be developed by giving sufficient practical knowledge to mechanical operation (characterization of solid particles, size reduction, energy requirement and mechanical separation). A field visit may be conducted to expose the working of various conveyers and filtration equipment in industries.
