Definitions
A series of mechanical or chemical operations that change or preserve some equipment, devices, or systems
What is a process?
Number of moles
What is mass divided by molecular weight?
Units for molar flux
What is moles/hr?
It consists of separating amounts of water from a solid material
What is drying?
Balances are carried out on the initial and final states of the system.
What is Batch Process?
When there is no net accumulation or depletion of mass in a system then the mass balance is:
Total mass entering system = total mass leaving system
Amount of matter chosen to carry out mass balance calculations
What is basis for calculation?
It is the liquid stream leaving the filter
What is filtarte?
A quantity of matter or a region in space that is of interest
What is System?
The rate of mass transfer due to molecular diffusion is given by:
What is Fick's law?
Consumption refers to:
What is reactants?
Which of these is an example of solid-liquid extraction: leaching, osmosis or drying
What is leaching?
Properties change over time
What is Non-steady state?
Input + generation – output – consumption =
What is accumulation?
These types of mass transfer take place in a packed bed
What is molecular diffusion and convective mass transfer?
It is the solid stream leaving the solid - liquid extraction process.
What is raffinate?
It is a form of matter having constant chemical composition and characteristic properties.
What is a Substance?
It is the relation between momentum transfer and mass transfer
What is Schmidt number?
Considering A (feed), B (solvent), C (output), D (output), E (generation), F (consumption) and G (accumulation), how would be the mass balance?
A + B + E - C - D - F = G
The incorporation of a substance in one state into another of a different state.
What is absorption?
