Type:  , open university
Class schedule:   juni
Exam schedule:   No exam
Recommended semester:  4th -7th semester
Scope and form:  3 wks. period with experiments and simulation exercises for gr. of 2 or 3 students. See 'Remarks'.

Aim:  To extend the students understanding of making solutions of technical or chemical problems by exercises and calculations. The course is of considerable value for further studies at KT and BiC.
Contents:  The following labs are offered (2 are to be chosen by each student): 1) Expanded bed adsorption 2) Oil refining 3) Simulation of a production in a fermentor 4) Vapor-liquid equilibria 5) Simulation of a separation process 6) Rheological characterisation of structured materials 7) Separation in plate column 8) Polymerization of styren in emulsion and suspension 9) Ultrafiltration 10) Electrodialysis.
Remarks:  Every group will make 2 experimental investigations each of 6 days duration inclusive report writing. The experiments will take place at Department of Chemical Engineering and Biocentrum-DTU. There is a 2-day mandatory excursion to Cheminova Agro A/S. The last day each team shall present one of their reports which will be evaluated by the other teams.
