Module Objectives

أهداف المادة الدراسية

 

 

  1. The industry of oil and gas depends on successful operation of industries that require and consume raw materials and energy. This success depends, in turn, on efficient use of the available resources, which not only allows industry to conserve materials and energy, but also allows it to compete successfully in the world markets that exist today. The theory of the construction of material and energy balances, from which such knowledge is derived, is not particularly complicated or difficult, but the practice, particularly in the oil and gas processing operations, can be extremely difficult and expensive.
  2.  Provides an introduction to the basic problem-solving skills. This course also focuses on the analysis of process flow sheets in terms of flow of material and flow of energy. To develop problem solving skills and understanding of circuit theory through the application of techniques.

 

Module Learning Outcomes

Indicative Contents

المحتويات الإرشادية

Indicative content includes the following:

-Topics covered include material balances around single process units and groups of units, involving simple systems and recycle streams, and non-reacting and reacting systems. Total, component, and elemental balances are covered. Other topics include systems of units and unit conversion, and compositions of mixtures.

-Energy balances: The concepts of energy, work and heat, the units of energy, internal energy, enthalpy, heat capacity, latent heat, evaluation of enthalpy changes. The general energy balance equation, enthalpy balances, system boundaries. Enthalpies of pure components and selection of enthalpy data conditions.

- Energy balances and chemical reactions: Heat of reaction, definitions of standard heat of reaction, standard heat of formation, standard heat of combustion. Hess' Law of adding stoichiometric equations. Adiabatic reaction temperature. Heats of solutions and dilution, and use of enthalpy-concentration charts. Simultaneous material and energy balances.

- The basic purpose of material and energy balance is to quantify all the material, energy and waste streams in a process or a system. to find out the difference between calculated/designed values and measured/actual values thereby making it possible to identify previously unknown losses and emissions.

- Safety case studies, safe practices, personal and process safety.

- Lecture notes, comprising of the fundamentals of each module of the course will be prepared and presented in class on a weekly basis. The notes will introduce the major concepts and will focus on specific learning outcomes of the course.

- Demonstration activities including the solution of worked examples in class on a weekly basis, as well as laboratorial work will also be employed. For each fundamental concept, at least one worked example will be solved during lectures. The laboratory work will cover all major topics of the course, allowing the students to personally relate to the presented knowledge.

- Collaborating teaching through classroom discussion and debriefing will also be encouraged during lectures.

 

 

Learning and Teaching Strategies

استراتيجيات التعلم والتعليم

Strategies

 

-The lectures will include the presentation by using PowerPoint, videos and other software tools.

- The whiteboard will be used to further explain to the lectures.

- The practical tasks will be done in the drawing hall. During those practice excises

students can work together in small groups in order to improve their knowledge together.

- During the lecture, the students will be encouraged to speak English language only.

- The students will get further information reference to expand their knowledge

- Attend class and respect class disciplines.

-  Ask questions, defining problems and suggest a solution.

-  Participate in group discussion and prepare a report.

- Use Power Point presentations, simulations and videos to support the teaching.

- Students can present their findings in class.

- Give exercises to discuss in group.

-Give individual exercise and follow-up them.

Note: Marks Decimal places above or below 0.5 will be rounded to the higher or lower full mark (for example a mark of 54.5 will be rounded to 55, whereas a mark of 54.4 will be rounded to 54. The University has a policy NOT to condone "near-pass fails" so the only adjustment to marks awarded by the original marker(s) will be the automatic rounding outlined above.
