CHEMICAL ENGINEERING LABORATORY II

2019 - 2020 Spring Semester

Course objectives:

• To apply the fundamental concepts in chemical engineering using empirical techniques.
• To gain experience on the fundamental measuring techniques widely used in the chemical process industries and developing technical report writing skills.
• This course will help to instill technical competence in mathematics, science and chemical engineering, to develop problem solving skills, to instill an ability to use the techniques, skills, and modern engineering tools necessary for chemical engineering practice, to instill professional ethics and to instill an ability to engage in life-long learning.

Learning outcomes:

1. Students gain the ability to solve and present the engineering problems by using the knowledge acquired in courses of Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry in the field of science and courses of Fluid Mechanics, Heat Transfer, Mass Transfer, Chemical Reaction Engineering, Transport Theory, Reactor Design and Process Control in the field of engineering.
2. Students gain the the ability to solve engineering problems in a teamwork by sharing the jobs.
3. Students gain the ability to do research, to design experiments by making criticisms and suggestions under realistic constraints and conditions, to collect data, to analyze and discuss the results.
4. Students gain the ability to access the necessary information by using modern engineering tools, information technology and foreign languages effectively.
5. Students establish effective oral and written communication.
6. Students associate the engineering cases, events and situations in his experiments.
7. Students are aware of the importance of occupational health and safety in the laboratory.
8. Students are aware of the professional and ethical responsibility. 9. Students are aware of legal consequences of engineering solutions.
