Keisha C. A. Antoine; Lealon L. Martin; Jorge F. Gabitto – Chemical Engineering Education, 2024
In this paper we demonstrate that using mixed reality (MR) technology can innovate our chemical engineering laboratory curriculum at Prairie View A&M University, a Historically Black College/University (HBCU). Particularly, we describe the development of a MR proof of concept to carry out a traditional fluid mechanics lab -- pressure drop as a…

Ye Jiang; Xin Sun; Guomeng Zhang; Da Han; Zhengda Yang – Journal of Chemical Education, 2024
The flue gas from waste incineration power plants contains high-level zinc species that may deactivate the catalyst for selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of nitrogen oxides (NO[subscript x]) with NH[subscript 3]. A comparison experiment was designed to investigate the effect of different types and Zn/Ce molar ratios on the performance of…

Madalyn Wilson-Fetrow; Vanessa Svihla; Brandon Burnside; Abhaya Datye – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
While students can learn both chemistry content and inquiry practices by participating in course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs), it is well documented that prior experiences shape perception. We conducted a case study to investigate students' first experiences with a CURE in an upper-division chemical engineering laboratory…

Ressia, Delfina; Ferro, Macarena A.; Trobiani Di Canto, Juliana A.; Saugo, Melisa; Ciolino, Andrés E. – Chemical Engineering Education, 2023
This paper reports the quantification of Ca, Mg, and Fe as micronutrients in different vegetables (spinach, sugar beets, and carrots) from raw and processed samples. Simple extraction procedures, titrations, and spectrophotometric analysis were used to determine the amounts of micronutrients before and after cooking. From the obtained results, an…

Jacob C. Crislip; Esai Lopez; Cameron D. Armstrong; Taylor Petell; Laila Abu-Lail; Andrew R. Teixeira – Advances in Engineering Education, 2023
A chemical engineering student's knowledge of theory, experimental design, and real-world processes is tested and enforced in the Unit Operations laboratory courses. However, instructors are facing challenges of delivering high-quality, hands-on laboratory content with limited resources and increasingly large class sizes. Limited in-lab time is…

Jinchang Liu; Qin Liu – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
The COVID-19 epidemic adversely impacted chemical engineering experiments(CEEs). Students underwent online learning, i.e., software simulation of the CEE course, instead of laboratory learning. A questionnaire survey revealed that students exhibited low enthusiasm for online learning, showing that online courses cannot ensure learning quality.…

Yunhua Li; Weizhong Liao; Cuixue Chen; Meiling Ye; Alexander Luis Imbault – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
The electrolysis of water to produce hydrogen is a critical step in many green chemistry processes. The key to the efficiency of water electrolysis is the synthesis of an appropriate electrocatalyst. Three-dimensional (3D) printing is an increasingly important part of many industrial processes. In this study, we propose an efficient laboratory…

Onyeaka, Helen; Passaretti, Paolo; Miri, Taghi; Hart, Abarasi; Favero, Claudia; Anumudu, Christian K.; Robbins, Phillip – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2023
The limited capabilities of teaching laboratories, combined with an increasing number of students enrolled in university, require constant augmentation of instructional approaches. By enhancing laboratory demonstrations with digital technology, these structural issues can be addressed while at the same time enhancing student understanding and…

Helmbrecht, Hawley; Nance, Elizabeth – Chemical Engineering Education, 2022
Tutorials for EXperimentalisT Interactive LEarning (TEXTILE) is an interactive semi-linear module-based curriculum for training students at various educational levels on data science methodologies currently utilized by research laboratories. We show how we developed our eleven module TEXTILE program to train 15 students from high school,…

Acuña-Girault, Adalberto; Gómez del Campo-Rábago, Ximena; Contreras-Ruiz, Marco Antonio; Ibanez, Jorge G. – Journal of Technology and Science Education, 2022
During the SARS-2-COVID pandemic our institution sought to continue the teaching and learning of experimental laboratories by designing, assembling, and delivering a microscale chemistry kit to the students' homes. Thanks to this approach students were able to perform [approximately]25 experiments during each one of the Fall 2020 and Spring 2021…

Caño de las Heras, Simoneta; Kensington-Miller, Barbara; Young, Brent; Gonzalez, Vicente; Krühne, Ulrich; Mansouri, Seyed Soheil; Baroutian, Saeid – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
Engineering education is facing major challenges as it seeks to provide necessary and robust practical experience for all its undergraduate students. The limitation of resources (capital and operational), the increasing number of engineering students and the need to provide safe, up-to-date laboratory experiences have become global issues.…

Carlos J. Landaverde-Alvarado – Chemical Engineering Education, 2024
We redesigned our undergraduate laboratories to create a structured sequence that continuously improves the learning experience of students. We utilized a PBL and PjBL approach in which students are progressively introduced to ill-structured open-ended problems, the development of projects, and the creation of research products. We dynamically…

Alfred Fernandez-Castane – Cogent Education, 2024
The transformation of the chemical engineering profession is occurring in response to the industry needs of the rapidly-developing bioeconomy and biosector across Europe. To meet these requirements, a new Biotechnology and Bioprocessing module has been designed and offered to Chemical Engineering undergraduates at Aston University, UK. This module…

Christiaan H. L. Tempelman; Annemiek Rijgersberg; Michel van der Eijk – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
The redesign of the first year basic chemistry course is described at the Rotterdam University of Applied Sciences Chemical Engineer educational course. This was done with the aim to reduce student drop-out during the first year of the educational program. On one hand, it was chosen to teach the basic chemistry course in the laboratory where…

Kevin Morgan – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
Practical classes are an important and essential part of undergraduate programs in Chemical Engineering, as each experiment provides an opportunity to reinforce the theory of discrete unit operations that are taught elsewhere in the course. While an expensive pedagogical method, when practical sessions are delivered well, they can be one of the…
