Course Description

Asound knowledge of process engineering fundamentals becomesincreasingly important due to the broader application of processsimulation software for the development (synthesis), design andoptimization of chemical processes. Within this course participantsfrom academia and industry should become familiar with thepossibilities and limitations of currently used methods and models. Thecourse will focus on those aspects, which we consider to be of primaryimportance for the successful modeling of single separation units orwhole chemical plants.

Besidesthe thermodynamic properties of pure components, especially thebehavior of multicomponent mixtures will be covered with specialattention to phase equilibria, also those of electrolyte systems.

Followinga detailed discussion of the basics of thermodynamics and unitoperations such as distillation, extraction, crystallization, membraneprocesses, … various approaches to process engineering problems usingmodern thermodynamic methods will be presented.

Theseinclude for example the selection of suitable entrainers for specialseparation processes like azeotropic and extractive distillation,extraction as well as hybrid or pressure swing processes and adiscussion of reactive distillation.

Participantsshould gain an improved understanding of the various graphicalrepresentations of the real behavior of mixtures such as solvent-freeplots, contour lines, residual curves incl. boundary lines or surfaces,…).

Practical tutorials are included to deepen the understanding of the various topics.

The course will be held in English.

Followingthe first 3 days an optional fourth day offers an introduction to theprocess simulation package Aspen Plus. On the last day, the number ofparticipants is limited to 10.

Registration

Spaceis limited and early registration is recommended. The number ofparticipants is limited to 25. Up to 5 students of the University ofOldenburg will be given the possibility to participate.

Registrationfee is € 870.- (€ 1080.- for 4 days). VAT cannot be specified in theinvoice. The registration fee includes a copy of the course material,morning and afternoon refresh breaks and a get-together party at alocal restaurant.
