A particle transport/separation flow system is currently under construction and allows the laboratory investigation of particle technology and separation concepts to be introduced for the first time into the existing undergraduate curriculum in the College of Engineering and in the Department of Chemical Engineering. New instruments, a stack analyzer, pressure transducers, a particle characteristics tester, and a data acquisition board are being incorporated with the particle transport/separation system through this project. This enables labs on cyclone separation of powders from air, particle characterization, flow regime identification for gas/solid transport, and hopper operation to be incorporated into classes. The pneumatic transport/separation system has been completely designed and constructed undergraduate students and has served to begin to introduce particle technology and environmental separations to a small number of self-selected students. This project integrates particle technology into a number of the undergraduate classes, thus enabling all engineering undergraduates to become aware of the importance of the knowledge of particles. Additionally, all chemical engineering students can learn the various concepts pertinent to the transport and separation of particles in their existing undergraduate courses. The new instrumentation can result in a number of experiments of varying learning objectives on particle technology, which is a vital area of knowledge that has previously been neglected in chemical engineering education. Classes such as Process Control, Fluid Dynamics, Exploring Engineering, and Transport Phenomena will integrate the experiments to affect over 1,500 students in the next 5 years of use.

目前正在建设一个颗粒输送/分离流动系统，使工程学院和化工系的现有本科课程首次能够引入对颗粒技术和分离概念的实验室调查。通过该项目，新的仪器、堆积分析仪、压力传感器、颗粒特性测试仪和数据采集板将被整合到颗粒传输/分离系统中。这使得有关粉尘与空气的旋风分离、颗粒表征、气体/固体传输的流型识别以及料斗操作的实验室可以并入课堂。气力输送/分离系统已经完全由本科生设计和建造，并开始向少数自选的学生介绍颗粒技术和环境分离。该项目将粒子技术整合到多个本科课程中，从而使所有工科本科生都意识到粒子知识的重要性。此外，所有化学工程专业的学生都可以在现有的本科课程中学习与颗粒传输和分离相关的各种概念。新的仪器可以导致一些关于粒子技术的不同学习目标的实验，这是一个以前在化学工程教育中被忽视的重要知识领域。过程控制、流体动力学、探索工程和传输现象等课程将整合这些实验，在未来5年内影响1500多名学生。
