Objectives

-To introduce students to the concepts related to the use of mass and energy conservation principles, in order to solve mass and energy balances over chemical processes with and without chemical reactions. Perspective of these problems by general analysis of a case study.

Program

Heat Effects: heat capacities of solids, liquids and gases; latent heats of pure substances; heats of reaction.
Phase Equilibria in Non-ideal Systems: vapor-liquid equilibria, liquid-liquid equilibria, solid-liquid equilibria and solid-vapor equilibria.
Mass and energy balances in separation processes, with and without recycling.
Chemical-Reaction Equilibria: equilibrium constants, equilibrium conversions for homogeneous and heterogeneous systems.
Mass and energy balances in processes involving reactive systems.
Refrigeration and Liquefaction.
Visit to an industrial plant.
Case Study - thermodynamic analysis of a process.
