M Subbu Chemical Engineering.pdf: Instant Notes, Objective Types and Problems for GATE and Other Aptitude Tests

Competitive examinations have become inevitable nowadays foradmission to graduatecourses and placement in chemical and alliedindustries, for undergraduate students in chem-ical engineering.For such examinations, apart from a wide knowledge of all aspectsof unitoperations of chemical engineering a quick wit to solve thequestions/problems is absoluteleyessential. Exhaustic revision ofall these operations studied in earlier semesters is atediousprocedure. A quick insight into the same along withsolutions to short answer objectivequestions or problems isnecessiated. With this objective in view, the author has madeanattempt to prepare this monograph after going through manyquestion papers of this typefrom several universities along with anintensive study of the operations covered.

I had the oppurtunity of revising the text and providingacademic advice wherever nec-essary. I am confident this effort ofthe author will be well received by the budding chemicalengineerstaking their first degree from engineering colleges.

A set of instant notes are given for various important topics inthe core subjects ofChemical Engineering. I hope this set of topicsdetailed in this book will be of extreme useto the undergraduatestudents and practicing engineers for enhancing and checkingtheirknowledge in the core concepts of the subject. In anycompetitive examination due weightageis being given to objectivetype questions. In this book I have also given objectivetypequestions which will be useful for the chemical engineers andstudents for their preparation.

5 K. Nagarajan is a doctorate (2016) from IIT Madras. He obtained his M.Tech. (2003) and B.Tech. (2001) degrees, both in Chemical Engineering from, Siddaganga Institute of Technology, Tumkur (affiliated to VTU, Belagavi) and Adhiyamaan College of Engineering, Hosur (affiliated to Anna University, Chennai), respectively. Currently he is heading the Chemical Engineering Department, Rajalakshmi Engineering College, Chennai. Before joining IIT Madras for his Ph.D., he worked as a faculty member at Arunai Engineering College, Tiruvannamalai for about 7 years. He taught several courses in Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology like Mass transfer, Chemical Process Calculations, Fluid Mechanics, Mechanical Operations and Chemical Reaction Engineering. He cleared GATE more than three times. Apart from regular course teaching, he had been training students for the GATE exam for the past 13 years. S. Siddarth is a chemical engineering graduate from SSN CE. He is currently working for IOCL. He had secured AIR 120 in GATE He is a budding engineer who is keen to explore various aspects of chemical engineering and is interested to get a practical exposure to enhance his understanding of subjects. He is a co-author of the book GATEway GA to General Aptitude. R. Pavan Kumar (r pavan) is a chemical engineering graduate from SSN CE. He is currently working for BPCL. He had secured AIR 87 in GATE He is also a budding engineer who is enthusiastic to investigate diverse aspects of chemical engineering and is fascinated to acquire a realistic exposure to supplement his understanding of subjects. He is a co-author of the book GATEway GA to General Aptitude.6 FOREWORD I have known the authors, m subbu, d k sandilya, and k nagarajan, almost for the past 15 years and am well familiar with their interests and abilities since they used to interact with me both professionally and personally during their doctoral study times at IIT Madras. Dr. M. Subramanian (m subbu) used to discuss with me his research topic on photocatalysis, attend my classes on Chemical Reactor Theory at the masters level, and take necessary inputs from me as and when required. Dr. D. Krishna Sandilya (d k sandilya) was helping me as a teaching assistant (TA) for the course of Chemical Reactor Theory. He used to solve every problem of Levenspiel and was closely following the developments in the field of Chemical Engineering. Dr. K. Nagarajan was doing Ph.D under my supervision in the area of Fluidization. He was doing his experiments enthusiastically and systematically. Each of these authors used to share their understanding of the Chemical Engineering subjects with me and was found to be having good knowledge with a keen interest towards teaching career. Based on my observation during the constant interaction sessions with the above authors, I believe that they are teaching at their respective institutes with good enthusiasm by citing contemporary examples which can give clear understanding of the concepts. I came to know about the other two authors, Mr. S. Siddarth & Mr. R. Pavan Kumar, through Dr. M. Subramanian. They, along with Dr. M. Subramanian, have done an excellent job of solving, compiling and presenting with nice illustrations, the general aptitude aspects of GATE in their book titled GATEway GA to General Aptitude. I could learn that these two authors during their time as students at SSN, Chennai had undergone meticulous preparation for GATE, thereby getting a position in IOCL and BPCL respectively, the dream jobs of every aspiring chemical engineer. I could go through the salient aspects of the book GATEway GA to Chemical Engineering which is logically spread over five volumes. I also observed that the book is presented in a systematic manner, in the form of methodical approach to solutions of GATE-Chemical Engineering questions and questions from other relevant streams of GATE. The solutions to problems are explained with suitable illustrations and well-drawn diagrams, wherever necessary. T
