The course Fundamentals of Unit Operations explores the common principles of industrial steps such as distillation, drying, and absorption, classified by the nature of the transfer: momentum (fluid flow), heat, and mass. Contact between phases (gas-liquid, liquid-solid) maximizes interfacial area, ensuring efficient transfers.
Equipment design depends on flow configurations: co-current (same direction, avoids thermal shocks), countercurrent (opposite directions, maximum efficiency and energy recovery), and cross flow (perpendicular flows, compact, used in cooling towers and radiators).
Fluid dynamics, considering pressure drop and Reynolds number, guides the sizing of pumps, compressors, and piping. Mastering these concepts in an integrated way allows the design and optimization of separation and purification processes with scientific rigor and economic efficiency.
