CHEN 3320 Mass Transfer

This course will introduce the basics of mass transfer processes, which are essential tools for the separation of components in mixtures for chemical processes. Mass transport by diffusion and convection will be covered, including their combination that results in a mass transfer coefficient. These concepts will be applied to the analysis of essential components of chemical processes, such as evaporators, cooling towers, flow through porous media, leaching, and extraction.

Prerequisite

A minimum grade of "C" in CHEN 3302 and CHEN 3330 is required for students to enroll in this course.
