Separation processes based upon the scientific principles of adsorption are becoming increasingly important in the chemical industry. On the other hand, current treatment of the thermodynamic fundamentals and process principles of adsorption is inadequate or non-existent in many core chemical engineering undergraduate curricula and textbooks. The specific aims of this project are to introduce these topics into our core undergraduate courses, and to establish associated laboratories. Such introduction is particularly facilitated by our core curricular structure, wherein one full course considers the fundamentals of phase equilibria and another the principles of separation processes. Each of these classes has a laboratory course integrated with it, which the students take during the same semester they register for the lecture classes. A volumetric adsorption apparatus and a pressure swing adsorption apparatus (PSA) will be constructed to be included in these laboratories. No major pieces of equipment are requested. The nature of the experiments requires that the apparatuses by constructed rather than purchased. The students will be exposed to several new concepts peculiar to this subject, which must be learnt for the successful industrial practice of adsorption related phenomena.

基于吸附科学原理的分离过程在化学工业中变得越来越重要。 另一方面，目前许多核心化学工程本科课程和教科书中对吸附的热力学基础和过程原理的处理不充分或根本不存在。 该项目的具体目标是将这些主题引入我们的核心本科课程，并建立相关实验室。 我们的核心课程结构特别促进了这种介绍，其中一门完整课程考虑相平衡的基础知识，另一门课程考虑分离过程的原理。 每个课程都集成了实验室课程，学生在注册讲座课程的同一学期学习该课程。 这些实验室将配备容积式吸附装置和变压吸附装置（PSA）。 不需要主要设备。 实验的性质要求设备是自己建造的，而不是购买的。 学生将接触到本学科特有的几个新概念，为了成功地进行吸附相关现象的工业实践，必须学习这些新概念。
