Provides an overview of a graduate course on particulate processes, especially on crystal size distribution (CSD). Describes the course and includes a list of course topics. Discusses the CSD simulation and manipulation. (YP)

Described is a project where students gain experience in handling large volumes of hazardous materials, process start up and shut down, equipment failures, operational variations, scaling up, equipment cleaning, and run-time scheduling while working in a modern pilot plant. Included are the system design, experimental procedures, and results. (KR)

Points out a different and much simpler approach for the study of equilibria of multiple and heterogeneous chemical reactions. A simulation on coal methanation is used to teach the technique. An example and the methodology used are provided. (MVL)

A course where students were required to choose projects and provide studies of the feasibility, consumer need, and process design is discussed. Other projects such as advertising campaigns used to encourage student creativity are discussed. The need to keep second semester seniors interested is stressed. (MVL)
