KNOWLEDGE:

The student knows the basic physico-chemical laws of fluids. Knows the basic unit processes used in process engineering, what they consist of and their application. Demonstrates knowledge of basic concepts and terminology in the area of unit processes. Knows the main engineering materials, their basic characteristics and general principles of their selection.

SKILLS:

The student is able to make a selection of unit processes. He/she is able to make a selection of the basic equipment for the main processes, which are components of the plant, in order to carry out a specific unit process. He/she is able to identify the key process parameters.

COMPETENCES:.

The student is prepared to substantively discuss general principles of plant design and operation in environmental protection

Assessment methods and criteria

The course grade consists primarily of the grade from the final credit colloquium. The final assessment will also take into account the student's participation in the discussions and attendance during the class.

ECTS Description

1 ECTS = 25-30 hours

participation in lectures: 30 hrs.

preparation for the credit seminar: 30 hrs.

consultations: 5 hours

preparation for lectures: 15 hours

total hours: 80 [80/30(25)=3]

The course grade will consist primarily of the grade from the final assessment colloquium. The final mark will also take into account the student's participation in the talks and attendance during the class.

The first class will cover the basic laws of statics and dynamics of liquids and gases and will discuss the division of fluids. Subsequent lectures will cover basic physicochemical phenomena and their mechanisms (movement of bodies in fluids, heat transfer, mass transfer) and their use in key unit processes such as mixing, distillation, drying, crystallisation or absorption. The principles of these processes, key parameters and relationships between them will be discussed. Groups of equipment used to carry out these processes will be presented, as well as the construction and operating principles of selected apparatus. The final lectures will focus on the basic structural materials used in process engineering. The division of materials will be presented, followed by a discussion of each group of materials with a discussion of their properties and those of selected representatives of these groups, as well as their applications.

Classes will be taught using lectures combined with questions and discussions with students about processes analogous to industrial processes but applied in everyday life.
