Learning Outcomes: 1. Utilize the concepts and relations of phase equilibria, particularly VLE, in the analysis, design, and simulation of separation processes. 2. Use mass and energy balances in the analysis of separation processes. 3. Use the McCabe-Thiele diagram for the solution of problems in binary separations. 4. Use reflux and multi-stage cascades to increase separation of a given component. 5. Use process simulators for binary and multi-component systems to solve, understand, and design separation processes. 6. Apply the basic principles of distillation, absorption/stripping, extraction and other unit operations for the solution of problems in separations. 7. Identify the safety aspects of various separation processes. 8. Communicate effectively the results of a designed separation process in writing.
