This course allows for specialized, in-depth study. Emphasis is placed on individulaized instruction. Prerequisites: None. (2-2-0)
-
3.00 Credits
This course is designed to address the chemical processes in a paper or chemical plant, environmental issues in the paper and chemical industries, including the safety of personnel, safe use of resources, HAZWOPER, HAZCOM and compliance with governmental regulations. Topics include conversion of chips to pulp bleaching, emphasis on the chemical recovery process, origin, duties, organization and operation of the EPA and their significance to the paper and chemical industries. Upon completion, students should be able to explain some of the basic chemistry in the paper industry, and be able to discuss environmental issues most pertinent in the paper and chemical industries. Prerequisites: PCT122. (2-2-0)
-
3.00 Credits
This course is an introduction to the equipment and process used in the paper and chemical industries. Topics include a study of vessels, piping systems, valves, pumps, heat exchanger, and filtering systems. Upon completion, students should be able to demonstrate a knowledge of vessels, feed systems, and equipment used in process industries. The Unit Operations course will familiarize the students with the type of equipment and processes found in the chemical industry. Chemical processes such as crystallization, filtration, reaction, water treatment, distillation and heat exchange will be monitored and controlled by the student using a simulated industry environment including a control room and fully functional pilot process plants. The students will assume operator roles, adhere to industry safety standards, and complete documentation related to an actual chemical process under computer control. Also included in the course of study is a segment on support systems such as cooling towers, water treatment, steam generation, and heat recovery. Prerequisites: CHM104. (2-2-0)
-
