Unit operations 1

Description

Objectifs

At the end of this module, the student will have understood and be able to explain (main concepts):
- the basic concepts concerning intermolecular and interfacial interactions
- Different ways to perform filtration processes
- basic concepts of deep-bed filtration and membrane separation (UF/MF/NF)
- dimensionless numbers to characterise physical phenomena involved in mixing and separation operations
- design tools for unit operation of filtration and mixing



The student will be able to:
- identify interactions between compounds or interface/ compounds involved in filtration and mixing operations
- identify main membrane fouling phenomena for a given
application
- operate some filtration units at lab or pilot scale
--select the required unit operation and technology for a filtration or a mixing operation
- write the mass balances
- design a deep-bed filter
- design a membrane operation (MF, UF, NF)
- design a stirred tank and a static mixer
