2.0 SYNOPSIS
This course is fundamental to the learning of chemical engineering. It begins by strengthening
the knowledge of conversion as applied in engineering and sciences between various systems
such as SI, American and British. Then the students are introduced to the principles of mass
and energy balances in processes, fundamental of steady state mass balance on single and
multiple unit operations, along with bypass and recycle.
3.0 OBJECTIVES
Upon completion of this course, students should be able to:
1. Identify the basic principles of material balance. (C2)
2. Analyze problems related to material balance for non-reactive and reactive system.
(C4)
3. Evaluate process problems related to non-reactive and reactive material balance. (C5)
