- hybrid techniques (extractive distillation, distillation vapor membrane separation, simulated moving bed adsorption distillation)
- rate-based models for equilibrium-based separations (transport-rate expressions, mass transfer coupling)
- membrane transport mechanisms (including Maxwell-Stefan mass transfer)
- reactive membrane separations ( packed and fluidized bed membrane reactors)
- reactive affinity separations (reactive extraction, reactive distillation, chemisorption, precipitation, ion exchange)
- dynamic operation (pressure swing adsorption, reactive adsorption, chemical looping, cryogenic CO2 capture).
- electrochemically-assisted separations (fundamentals, capacitive deionization, electrodialysis, electrosorption)
Extra informatie over de beoordeling
Design assignment (50%): in groups of 4 students - Evaluation of different separation technologies for a selected process (different for each group), including literature review, ASPEN flow sheeting, first flow diagram and design of main (separation) apparatuses, report, presentation + discussion. - Examples: 1. Comparison of CO2 capture technologies (scrubbing vs. membranes) 2. Comparison of SEWGS and hydrogen membrane reactors 3. Comparison of membrane reactors for methanol production with conventional processes - Oral examination (50%): individual - 20 minutes - Over complete course curriculum
The result of the exam and/or the design assignment remains valid for 6 years.
