Annotation -
Students in working groups (usually three members) get acquainted with basic operations and apparatuses used in chemical and food processing operations. The task of the group is to perform the prescribed measurements, to elaborate the experimental data and to prepare a written report on the course of the measurement and its results. The Protocol also contains the conclusions drawn. The aim of the project is to teach students to apply the knowledge from the subject of Chemical Engineering to more complex problems, to problems involving several unit operations. Students solve assigned tasks in groups to get acquainted with teamwork principles. The solution is as follows: problem analysis, selection of solution method, searching for necessary data and solution of the problem. Students elaborate a written report on the solution of the problem and defend the results of their work.

Course completion requirements - Czech

Studenti se musí zúčastnit šesti laboratorních úloh, vypracovat z každé úlohy protokol a obhájit závěry na přezkoušení. Řešení projektu studenti zpracují ve formě písemné zprávy, kterou v tištěné i elektronické verzi odevzdají konzultantovi. Nedílnou součástí projektu je prezentace výsledků a jejich obhájení.

Syllabus -

Students in working groups (usually three members) get acquainted with basic

operations and apparatuses used in chemical and food processing operations. The task

group is to perform the prescribed measurements, process the experimental data, and elaborate

written report on the course of measurement and its results. The Protocol also contains the conclusions drawn.

Topics:

Hydromechanical operations: Loss of mechanical energy during fluid flow through pipelines and fittings, Characteristics of centrifugal pump, Mixer power, Filtration, Sedimentation, Pressure drop of fluid flow through packing.

Mechanical Processes: Ball Mill Grinding.

Thermal processes: Plate heat exchanger. Heat transfer coefficient on ribbed surface.

Separation Processes: Rectification, Drying, Reverse Osmosis, Extraction.

Reactor engineering: Batch reactor with enzymatic reaction.

The project will be submitted in the 1st week, in the following weeks will be solved and in the last week will be defense of results.
