2.0 SYNOPSIS

Chemical Engineering Laboratory III is a continuation of the previous Chemical Engineering

Laboratory I and II works. This course covers experiments related to chemical reactions that

occur in various reactors types as well as separation processes.

3.0 OBJECTIVES

Upon completion of this course, students should be able to:

1. Identify laboratory procedures.

2. Analyze experimental units.

3. Evaluate the experiments in relation to the fundamental theories and concepts.

14 1 All experiments TEST

Student should carry out minimum six (6) experiments which consist of three (3) open-ended

experiments and another three (3) for normal procedural experiments. The following are the

equipments available for experiments:

1 Gas Absorption Unit

2 Gas Adsorption Unit

3 Gas Diffusion Unit

4 Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor (CSTR)

5 Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor (CSTR) in series

6 Plug Flow Reactor

7 Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor (CSTR) – Pilot Size (40L)

8 Tubular Flow Reactor

Student should carry out minimum six (6) of the above experiments during the semester. In case of

any above experiments is not available, alternative experiments or special assignment(s) shall be

conducted.

For selected open-ended experiments, the activities should include:

1. Preparing experimental procedure based on Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) of each

equipment.

2. Discussion/consultation with lecturer and lab technician/lab assistant on experimental

procedure and suitability of chemicals/materials to be used.
