A Chemist's Guide to Chemical Engineering

26 - 29 October 2010, Basel, Switzerland

Introduction

This 3.5-day course will include some basic problems and case studies on an individual and group basis. These will include elevation of mass and energy balances, estimating pumping requirements and fluid flow, some basic process design concepts and calculation of heating and cooling requirements. Some of these will be done manually and some by using PCs. It is hoped to show how PCs are used by engineers and use will be made of multimedia interactive techniques where possible.
