Course description and aims

This course teaches the fundamentals of separation required in various chemical studies. Molecular mechanisms that separation relies on, quantitative interpretation of separation processes, what causes good or poor separation etc will be theoretically considered based on physical phenomena including fluid mechanics and mass transfer as well as chemical interactions. This course enables students to overcome the problems that they will encounter in their own research work.

Student learning outcomes

By the end of this course, students will: 1. Know physics and chemistry involved in separation processes. 2. Understand the quantitative interpretation of results of separation. 3. Know dynamics and statics of separation processes. 4. Know how to improve separation performance. 5. Know that separation is not only a practical tool but also an efficient probe to the solution and interfacial phenomena

Keywords

Two-phase distribution, Chromatography, Fluid mechanics, Electrostatic theory

Competencies that will be developed

Specialist skills Intercultural skills Communication skills Critical thinking skills Practical and/or problem-solving skills

Class flow

Students should answer exercise quiz related to the lecture during each class.
