411-339 Process Engineering 2

411-102 Chemical Process Analysis, 411-201 Introduction to Transport Processes, 411-203 Fluid Mechanics, 431-202 Engineering Analysis B (prior to 2001, 421-205 Engineering Analysis B) or equivalent

Material taught in other chemical engineering subjects will be reinforced by a series of assignments in which ill-defined and open-ended engineering problems will be tackled. Students successfully completing the subject will have developed enhanced engineering problem-solving skills. They will also have developed an appreciation for the legal and social framework within which engineers must practise.

Content: Practice in the development and application of selection criteria for making appropriate engineering decisions. Creating and analysing processing systems which economically transform raw material, energy and know-how into useful products. Practice in application of computer design packages to perform chemical process design calculations. General, contract, corporate, environmental and intellectual property law.

Assignments not exceeding a total of 80 pages of computations, diagrams and written work.
