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…

Benson, Tracy J.; Richmond, Peyton C.; LeBlanc, Weldon – Chemical Engineering Education, 2013
An industrial-type distillation column, including appropriate pumps, heat exchangers, and automation, was used as a unit operations experiment to provide a link between classroom teaching and real-world applications. Students were presented with an open-ended experiment where they defined the testing parameters to solve a generalized problem. The…
