The aim of the course is to acquire by a student a basic knowledge regarding process engineering rules and the most important unitary operations and processes, especially these which have applications in the field of environmental protection. Furthermore, the goal is to acquire by a student skills of mathematical analysis of the unitary operations and processes which enable predicting the technological and economical properties of the designed processes.
Passing the courses: Physical Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics.
Lectures: Unitary operations and processes. Selected issues regarding rheology an media flow; properties of liquids in environmental protection. The flow continuity equation and the Bernoulli's law. Real fluids: pressure losses caused by the internal friction of the fluids (Darcy-Weisbach equation) and by the local resistance. Pumps. The liquid outflow from a vat. Mono- and polyphase flux through deposits. Gravitational separation of suspensions: sedimenation and filtration. Fluidization. Barbotage. Filtration. Dust removal from gases. Heat transport. Extraction. Absorption and adsorption in purifying liquids. Division and general characteristics of membrane processes used in environmental protection.
Exercises: solving issues and computational tasks regarding: physicochemical parameters of fluids, fluids' flow: the flow continuity equation, the Bernoulli's law and the Darcy-Weisbach equation. Sedimentation, filtration, heat treansport, adsorption, extraction.
