Document Summary
Chemical engineers design ways to convert matter into a more useful form. Chemical engineers use chemistry, math, physics, biology, and economics to solve technical problems. Chemical engineers can make processes more cost effective, more. Green beans roaster storage grinder brewer cup of coffee. Chemical engineers concern themselves with the chemical and transport processes that turn green coffee beans into coffee products (roasted beans, brewed coffee, etc. ) Require a detailed understanding of the various unit operations , such as chemical reactions and heat transfer during roasting, grinding, and mass transfer during brewing, which make these conversions possible. Transport phenomena transport the heat (roasting, hot coffee), fluids (water), and mass (water and coffee extraction) Thermodynamics - heat and its relation to energy and work (heating water, energy efficiency) Serve as a non mathematical introduction to how engineers" approach and solve problems, as elucidated by the process of roasting and brewing coffee.
