Description

Introduction:

Gas Absorption is one of the very first Mass Transfer Unit Operations studied in early process engineering. It is very important in several Separation Processes, as it is used extensively in the Chemical industry.

Understanding the concept behind Gas-Gas and Gas-Liquid mass transfer interaction will allow you to understand and model Absorbers, Strippers, Scrubbers, Washers, Bubblers, etc...

We will cover:

REVIEW: Of Mass Transfer Basics (Equilibrium VLE Diagrams, Volatility, Raoult's Law, Azeotropes, etc..)

Distillation Theory

Application of Distillation in the Industry

Counter-Current Operation

Several equipment to Carry Gas-Liquid Operations

Bubble, Spray, Packed and Tray Column equipment

Flash Distillation & Flash Drums Design

Design & Operation of Tray Columns

Number of Ideal Stages: McCabe Thiele Method & Ponchon Savarit Method
Recycle

Condenser types: partial, total

Pressure drop due to trays

Design & Operation of Packed Columns

Pressure drop due to trays

Efficiency of Stages & Murphree's Efficency

Batch Distillation, the Raleigh Equation

Software Simulation for Absorption/Stripping Operations (ASPEN PLUS/HYSYS)

Solved-Problem Approach:

All theory is backed with exercises, solved problems, and proposed problems for homework/individual study.

At the end of the course:

You will be able to understand mass transfer mechanism and processes behind Binary Distillation in Flash, Continuous & Batch Processes. You will be able to continue with a Multi-Component Distillation, Reactive Distillation and Azeotropic Distillation as well as more Mass Transfer Unit Operation Courses and/or Separation Processes Course.

About your instructor:

I majored in Chemical Engineering with a minor in Industrial Engineering back in 2012.

I worked as a Process Design/Operation Engineer in INEOS Koln, mostly on the petrochemical area relating to naphtha treating. There I designed and modeled several processes relating separation of isopentane/pentane mixtures, catalytic reactors and separation processes such as distillation columns, flash separation devices and transportation of tank-trucks of product.
