Scale-up

One of the riskiest and expensive stages in chemical engineering is the scale up process. Evidence shows that the expense and peril in the scale up process is due to the application of different equipment used in the processing of

Scale Up in Chemical Engineering

“The successful start up and operation of a commercial size unit whose design and operating procedures are in part based upon experimentation and demonstration at a smaller scale of operation.” This whole process is called “scale-up.” (Bentolila, Alshanski, Novoa, & Gilon, 2018). Chemical engineering is

Mixing Science and Practice

The Purpose of Mixing Let us start out by asking the question: what is the purpose of mixing? Then, we can understand why we need chemical mixing simulation. We carry out mixing in order to affect a process in a

Unit Operations of Chemical Engineering

The VisiMix tool allows you to analyze and study most of mixing processes. It is always good to confirm some of these parameters by experimentation; by using VisiMix you can minimize the number of experiments needed. Let us take a
