Separation Engineering is one of the fundamentals to those who study chemical engineering as a lot of separation processes are running in chemical, pharmaceutical and other plants. Without sufficient knowledge of separation engineering, you cannot deal with various problems concerning the energy and environment today.
Through this course, students will learn fundamentals of separation, in particular the principles of membrane separation, and its processes.

・Knowledge of mathematics, especially on differentiation and integration is necessary. It is also expected that student is proficient in the use of Microsoft® Excel.
・Student should review and understand what he/she learned in the previous lecture before going to the next one.
