Basics of paper testing and reclaimed fibers are also studied. Fundamentals of chemical engineering dealing with behavior of gases, thermophysical properties of gases, liquids and solids, thermochemistry, and associated problem solving. Emphasis is on mass and energy balances. The laboratory period is utilized as a problem solving workshop. A continuation of PAPR 306 dealing with the unit operations of chemical engineering in the areas of fluid mechanics and heat transfer.
Emphasis is on principles and equipment design and application.
The laboratory period is devoted to problem solving and equipment design. A written report is required. Departmental consent is required. Open only to department majors. Unit operations in the area of fluid mechanics with extensive examples from pulp and paper process operations.
