Objective
Having completed the study unit, the participants are able to
- Calculate and scale simple material and heat transfer processes
- Describe equipment and technologies required in unit operations and unit processes as well as in heat and material transfer processes
- Tell about special characteristics of different processes in chemical engineering and choose and scale equipments for processes.
Content
In the course the students deepen their knowledge in processes and phenomenonin biotechnology materials, and foodengineering
- Material flow calculations
- Heat transfer calculations
- Material and heat transfer equipment and processes
Materials
Lecture material is submitted in ITS-Learning environment
Teaching methods
The course consists of lectures and home work.
Exam schedules
Unit processes exam
Flow technology and material balances exam
Retake exams on EE technology exam days, which are announced at the beginning of the course in the learning environment.
International connections
Technologies will be studied during lectures, by individual learning and by calculating basic practical examples. The implementations is about to be tranferred into a web-based course. This means that part of the course can be based on individual.
Implementation as present education. No distance learning opportunities.

Student workload
Work load consists of lectures, calculations, individual working and exams.
Further information
All the communication is kept during the lectures and calculation lectures.
Also ITS-Learning notice board is actively used.
Email is used only in urgent matters.
Do not use any other possible communication methods like Peppi- messages or equivalent, those ARE NOT actively monitored.
