Abstract
In many industrial sectors, including the chemical, food, and biological processing industries, there are many similarities in the manner in which the entering feed materials are modified or processed into final products. These seemingly different physical, chemical, or biological processes can be broken down into a series of separate and distinct steps called unit operations. This chapter focuses on a description of physical means for the transfer and change of energy and materials through a review of the quantitative approach to addressing unit operations, the classification of unit operations, the basics and fundamentals of the principles of mass and heat transfer, and a description of fluid flow. It provides seven illustrative examples of concepts and implementation of analyses of unit operations.
