04005 Teaching Alternate Separation Technologies
OverviewThe past two decades have seen the emergence of alternative separation technologies for removing pollutants from wastewater effluents and purifying high-value pharmaceutical drugs. This session welcomes papers dealing with innovative ways of teaching alternative separation processes such as membrane technology, bioseparation and aqueous two-phase systems to chemical engineering students. The contributions include, but are not limited to, developed capstone projects, new courses, educational software, and other tools that can help prepare students to meet the challenges posed by these new technologies.
