Studies separation methods including distillation, absorption, and extraction, and graphical and computer-based solutions to separation problems. Also studies mass transfer rate processes, including diffusion, microscopic material balances, and correlations for mass transfer coefficients. Applies mass transfer rate theory to packed and tray columns. Prerequisites: Requires pre-requisite courses of CHEN 3200 (or MCEN 3021 or GEEN 3853) and CHEN 3320.
