About the Course
This fast-paced, hard-hitting audio lecture provides a run down on all the essential topics of chemical engineering for the research chemist who wishes to push his or her bench-top innovation into industrial proportions.
This audio lecture encapsulates the material in the full-fledged course. Get an overview of the various topics of engineering that will help to bring your brainchild to fruition!
- Reactor design
- Separation of materials
- Transport phenomena – heat mass and momentum transfer
- Thermodynamics
- Scale-up technology
- Cost estimation techniques
- Control engineering configuration
- Engineering design practices
What You Will Learn
- How to apply chemical engineering knowledge to further your bench-grade process: design a pilot, and participate in the design of a full-scale layout
- Important chemical engineering principles (e.g., thermodynamics, material balance, reactor design, separation processes, heat exchangers, scale-up techniques, pilot design, and simulation)
- How to appraise the feasibility of a newly-formulated chemical process, estimate the cost of design, and construct a pilot level and full-scale facility for your newly-invented or modified chemical process
- How to negotiate with chemical engineers, oversee their design, and get the maximum benefit from their services
Who Should Attend
Scientific professionals who wish to scale-up their bench process, build a pilot, and participate in designing a full-scale production line.
Those who need to negotiate and interact with chemical engineers and who need to appraise the industrial feasibility of their newly-conceived chemical process.
