    The goalThe goal of the course is to enable the students to think critically and analytically in the light of basic unit operations in order to design the equipment used for mechanical and heat transfer operations in chemical industry. Introduction to the way of thinking, logic and terminology as well as the sources of information in this area.
    The outcomeThe ability to choose, calculate and design the basic types of equipment used for mechanical and heat transfer operations of chemical industry.
    Contents
    Contents of lecturesThe basic principles for the selection and design of equipment and devices in chemical industry. Material and energy balances as a basis for the equipment design.
