1. Background and importance of “Chemical Engineering” 1.1. History of Chemical Engineering (1) Haber-Bosch process (Method of directly synthesizing ammonia from hydrogen and nitrogen) (2) Gasoline production process 1.2. Four important “Pollution-related illnesses” in Japan and the contribution of separation process on the solution of this subjects (1) Minamata disease : mercury (2) Niigata Minamata disease : mercury Mercury is highly volatile element, still difficult subjects to separate from flue gas. New production process for NaOH without mercury were developed. (3) Itai-itai disease : Cadmium emission, Cd ion in sewer water and dust emission (4) Asthma in Yokkaichi : Sulfite gas, Nitrogen oxide and dust, fine particles New Environmental subjects 2. New technology about separation from polluted water and gas 1) Liquid-liquid extraction, emulsion dispersion (oil in water, water/oil/water) 2) Adsorption, Zeolite and other adsorbed material (ferrocyanide) Example, Fukusima radioactive material Cesium Environmental standard = 5000 becquerel : the number of atoms / second 3. New concepts for chemical production process engineering, / Closed systems Separation and recycling of unreacted raw feedstock / Zero emission l, aggregation and sedimentation etc. 4. Presentation and discussion about "Chemical Engineering" |
