Objectives
  • Create representative process flow diagrams and use them to organize systems of equations.
  • Formulate material balances to solve for compositions and flow rates of process streams.
  • Incorporate single and multiple reactions into unit operations within chemical processes.
  • Identify and calculate physical and chemical properties for compounds and approaches to estimate these values for chemical processes.
  • Derive energy balances for chemical processes and integrate with material balance calculations to solve for energy inputs and/or outputs.
