This unit develops the student's ability to formulate and solve material and energy balances for chemical process systems. Students analyse material balances for multi-unit process systems with and without chemical reactions, including systems that incorporate recycle and purge. Analysis of these systems develop understanding of and the ability to calculate the thermodynamic properties of gases, liquids and vapours. Energy balances based on the first law of thermodynamics are formulated for systems with and without reactions. -- Course Website
