Organisation and examination :
 |
| Teaching in the first semester, review in January |
 |
Course contents :
 |
| This course presents the following matters:
- Characterization of particulate systems.
- Mixing of divided solids.
- Use of divided solids in fixed bed and in fluidized bed.
|
 |
Learning outcomes of the course :
 |
| At the end of the course, students will be able to apply the theoretical concepts of characterization and use of particulate systems.
They will be able to analyze the operation solid mixing unit operations, of fixed beds and of fluidized beds. |
 |
Prerequisites and co-requisites/ Recommended optional programme components :
 |
| |
 |
Planned learning activities and teaching methods :
 |
| The course is based on ex-cathedra lectures, self-learningessions (15 h).
The ex-cathedra lectures are dedicated to the presentation of fundamental concepts necessary to the dthe characterization of particular systems and at the understanding of their use in different unit operations.
During laboratory sessions, students work in (small) team. They have the opportunity to get familiar with different technqiues of divided solid characterization, mixing and use in fixed bed and fluidized bed. Participation to laboratory sessions is mandatory. |
 |
Mode of delivery (face-to-face ; distance-learning) :
 |
| Face-to-face |
 |
Recommended or required readings :
 |
| The course material is available of the eCampus website |
 |
Assessment methods and criteria :
 |
| An oral examination is organized in January.
Students prepare their answers on paper which they will then explain and develop orally. Evaluation relies essentially on the understanding of concepts and relationships between them rather on the capacity to make restitution. The examination proceeds with closed reference books and without calculator.
A report of the laboratory sessions must be provided by the students within 30 days after these sessions. This report must present the obtained experimental results, their critical analysis as well as answers to the questions presented in the laboratory notes.
The global mark is a weighted average of the marks obtained at the oral test (60 %) and the laboratory report (40 %).
The second session exam is organized in the same way as in January. The mark obtained for the laboratory report is maintained. |
