Undergraduate Courses

Here is a list of courses that I am teaching or taught before

ChE 310: Petroleum Products Lab

 

ChE 309: Chemical Engineering Lab I

 

This laboratory emphasizes concepts presented in the transport phenomena courses. A safety session is given at the commencement of the course. Safe practices are strictly adhered to throughout the course. Students carry out selected experiments in fluid mechanics, heat transfer, thermodynamics and diffusional mass transfer. Data collected are analyzed and compared to applicable theories.

ChE 351: Applied Chemical Engineering Cooperative Work

 

In this course the student will spend a period of 28 weeks of industrial employment in industry. Students are required to write a detailed formal report on their experience. Evaluation by the employer will be counted towards the grade given for this course.

ChE 409: Chemical Engineering Lab II

 

A laboratory to complement the theoretical derivations in stagewise operations, process dynamics and control, and kinetics and reactor design. A safety session is given at the commencement of the course. Safe practices are strictly adhered to throughout the course. Two environmental engineering reaction experiments are included. Students carry out selected experiments,  analyze data collected referring to applicable theories and present their findings in formal reports.

 

ChE 402: Kinetics and Reactor Design

 

This course presents first chemical engineering undergraduate material that discusses kinetics and reactor design and their applications to chemical engineering problems. The course consists of presenting the concepts and principles of chemical reaction engineering and reactor design. It also develops and enhances the students' skills in solving real problems from industry. New processes and reactor systems are introduced where they are solved and analyzed to strengthen the students' ability in using reasoning rather than memorization. The course also employs recent advances in computation in solving and analysis of kinetics and reactor design problems.

ChE 465: Process Integration and Optimization

 This course presents recent advances in chemical process integration and synthesis. The course presents systematic and state of-the-art techniques for understanding the global insights of mass and energy flows within a process and how these integrated insights can be used to optimize process performance. A variety of mathematical and visualization tools are presented. In particular, emphasis is given to fundamental integration and synthesis methodologies along with their applications to the process industries.

Graduate Courses

ChE 561: Process Optimization 

 

Che 590 : Special Topics

 

ChE 599: Seminar

 

Graduate students working towards either M.S. or Ph.D. degrees, are required to attend seminars given by faculty, visiting scholars and fellow graduate students. Additionally each student must present at least one seminar on a timely research topic. Among other things, this course is designed to give the student an overview of research in the department, and a familiarity with the research methodology, journals and professional societies in his discipline. Graded on a Pass or Fail basis.
